5(x – 4) + 3x – 9x = 6 – (2x + 5) + 8x

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to use the distributive property a couple times to expand the parentheses.

Remember that when expanding parentheses, we find the sum of the products of the outside term with each of the inside terms.

5(x - 4) = 5 * x + 5 * (-4) = 5x - 20

-(2x + 5) = -1 * 2x + -1 * 5 = -2x - 5

Now we have:

5x - 20 + 3x - 9x = 6 - 2x - 5 + 8x

Combine all the terms with x:

-x - 20 = 6x + 1

7x = -21

Divide by 7:

x = -21/7 = -3

The answer is thus -3.

Answer:

no you cant use these three ratios for any right triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratios: 0.38, 0.93, 0.36

            I\

0.38    I    \  0.93        right triangle

            I        \

            I_____\

              0.36

so this means a^2 + b^2 = c^2 would be true if these ratio worked

(0.36)^2 + (0.38)^2 = (0.93)^2

0.1296 + 0.1444 = 0.8649             NOT TRUE

4(3x+2)-2 <br> find x show how you did it
olganol [36]

Answer:

Multiply 4 to the terms inside the parentheses.

(12x+8)-2

Remove the parentheses and equate it to zero.

12x+8-2 = 0

Simplify

12x+6 = 0

Transpose 6 to the other side.

12x = -6

Divide bith sides by 12.

12x/12 = -6/12

Simplify.

x = -6/12 or -½
