Solve the equation using the distributive property and properties ofequally 1/2 (x+6)=18 what is the value of X

Mathematics

x = 30

The distributive property says that we need to multiply what's in the brackets by 1/2 (so 1/2*x and 1/2*6) to get the equation 1/2x + 3 = 18.

Then we need to subtract our constant, 3, from boths sides to get 1/2x = 15.

Multiply both sides by two to isolate x and you get x = 30.

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

12. 6.4

13. 20

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the Pythagorean theorem, which says a^2+b^2=c^2. So for problem 12 we have 4^2+5^2=c^2. Since, 16+25=41, c=sqrt41 which is about 6.4. For problem 13 we have 15^2+b^2=25^2. Since 25^2-15^2=400, b=sqrt400 which is 20. Hope this helps!

In any equation with variables, you want to end with a variable isolated on one side with no coefficients(like x=4, for instance).

So, with that in mind, let's solve number 2.

5(x-3) - 2(2x+4) = -2(x-2)
Let's distribute the coefficients.
(5x-15)-(4x+8) = (-2x+4)
Simplify the left side first (by subtracting the two)
5x-4x = x
-15 - (+)8 = -23
So, left side is
x-23 = -2x+4
We're close now, just bring the x to the left side and the other values to the right
x-23 = -2x+4
+23     +23
x=-2x+27
+2x +2x
3x=27
divide by 3
x=9

3.
3(4x-5)-2(2x-2)=4(3x-2)+5
Same idea here; distribute the coefficients, and simplify.
(12x-15)-(4x-4)=(12x-8)+5
12x-4x=8x
-15-(-)4=-11
-8+5=-3
8x-11=12x-3
bring x to left, other numbers to right
-12x    -12x
+11      +11
-4x = 8
divide by -4
x=-2
