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

Mathematics
1 answer:
arlik [135]3 years ago

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.

SOMEONE EASE ANSWER NUMBER 4?
nlexa [21]

On analyzing the question we can say that the angle ∠JKM of the triangle ΔJKL would be 42 as line MK bisects ∠JKL into ∠JKM & ∠MKL.

From the question it follows that line MK bisects angle ∠JKL into ∠JKM & ∠MKL where M is the point in the interior of ∠JKL.

Therefore, as we have given  m∠JKL = 84 & m∠MKL  = 42

and we have to find m∠JKM , we will simply write the equation as follow

m∠JKL = m∠JKM + m∠MKL

Inserting values we get,

84 = m∠JKM + 42

m∠JKM = 42

Hence, angle m∠JKM  of the triangle ΔJKL is  42.
