Simplify both sides of the equation

2-(3x-4)=2x-9

2+-1(3x-4)=2x-9

Distribute the negative sign

2+-1(3x)+(-1)(-4)=2x-9

2+-3x+4=2x-9

2+-3x+4=2x+-9

Combine like terms

(-3x)+(2+4)=2x-9

-3x+6=2x-9

Subtract 2x from both sides

-3x+6-2x=2x-9-2x

-5x+6=-9

Subtract 6 from both sides

-5x+6-6=-9-6

-5x=-15

Divide both sides by -5

-5x/5=-15/-5

x=3


I hope that's help !

First put the -1 into the 3x and -4, so it looks like 2-3x+4=2x-9, then combine 2 and 4, (-3x+6=2x-9), then subtract 2x from both sides (-5x+6=-9) then subtract 6 to both sides so -5x=-15, then divide by 5 so x=3 hope this helps!! sorry i messed up the first time

A scale drawing of a square object has a scale of 1 in. : 5 mm. The scale drawing has a length of 2.5 inches. Find the perimeter
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

Perimeter and area of drawing

Perimeter= 10 In

Area = 6.25 In²

Perimeter and area of object

Perimeter = 51.836 mm

Area = 167.936 mm²

Step-by-step explanation:

We are dealing with a square object, so let's talk about the drawing first.

The length of one side = 2.5 In

Perimeter of square= 4L

Perimeter = 4*2.5

Perimeter= 10 In

Area = L*L

Area = 2.5*2.5

Area = 6.25 In²

Letd note that 1 inch =

25.4 millimetres

So 2.5 Inch = 2.5 * 25.4

2.5 In = 63.5 mm.

25.4 mm is to 5mm

63.5 mm is to (63.5*5)/24.5

63.5mm is to 12.959 mm

So the length of actual object is 12.959mm

The perimeter = 4*12.959

Perimeter = 51.836 mm

Area = 12.959²

Area = 167.936 mm²
