Answer:

x=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x + 1)=2(x - 1)

3x + 3 = 2x - 2

3x - 2x = -2 - 3

x = -5

Hope this helps!

Answer:

x=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x + 1)=2(x - 1)

first u distribute

3x+3=2x-3

now u can either add or subtract 3 from both sides, i am going to add

3x+3+3 =2x-5+5

3x+6 = 2x

now u subtract 3x

3x-3x+5 = 2x-3x

5= -1x

now divide both sides by -1

x=-5

147/8 should be the answer. You had to change the mixed fraction into an improper fraction. Then switching 1/3 into 3/1 and then multiply.

The perimeter of the square
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

x = 20/49 units; P = 8 48/49 units

Step-by-step explanation:

All sides of a square are congruent.

That means that the two given side lengths are equal.

We set the two lengths equal and solve the equation for x.

5.5x = (1/5)(3x + 10)

Multiply both sides by 5.

27.5x = 3x + 10

Subtract 3x from both sides.

24.5x = 10

x = 10/24.5

x = 20/49

The perimeter of a square is 4s, where s is the length of a side.

P = 4s

= 4(5.5x)

= 4 * 5.5 * 20/49

= 22 * 20/49

= 440/49

= 8 48/49

Answer: x = 20/49 units; P = 8 48/49 units
