96 → B
substitute w = 12 into the equation D = 3w + 60
D = (3 × 12 ) + 60 = 36 + 60 = 96
Since the area of any thing is length time width, we can divide 4864 by 152 to get the width of the garden. This gives us 32. Now we need to add 152 + 152 + 32 + 32 to get our total feet of fencing necessary. This would give us 368 feet of fencing.
Simplifying
x + 6 = 3x + -14
Reorder the terms:
6 + x = 3x + -14
Reorder the terms:
6 + x = -14 + 3x
Solving
6 + x = -14 + 3x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.
6 + x + -3x = -14 + 3x + -3x
Combine like terms: x + -3x = -2x
6 + -2x = -14 + 3x + -3x
Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0
6 + -2x = -14 + 0
6 + -2x = -14
Add '-6' to each side of the equation.
6 + -6 + -2x = -14 + -6
Combine like terms: 6 + -6 = 0
0 + -2x = -14 + -6
-2x = -14 + -6
Combine like terms: -14 + -6 = -20
-2x = -20
Divide each side by '-2'.
x = 10
Simplifying
x = 10
