What is the order of the steps to solve for x in the equation 3x-6x-7=29

2 answers:

7 0

First, you should combine the x terms:

-3x - 7 = 29

Then, get rid of the negative 7, by adding 7 to both sides.

-3x = 22

Finally divide 22 by -3, to solve for x.

x = -22/3 or -7.33

combine like terms
-3x-7=29

add both sides by 7 to cancel it out
-3x-7=29
+7 +7

-3x=36

divide by -3 on both sides to cancel it out
-3x=36
— —
-3 -3

x= -12

There is a designated formula for this circle drawing. This is a secant-secant scenario, and in this case, the formula is:

CD(CD+X)=CB(CB+AB)

Plug the values in.
AB=42
BC=18
CD=4

4(4+x)=18(18+42)
Solve for x.
16+4x=1080
4x=1064
x=266
Your answer is C

Answer:

x=12

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an equilateral triangle. That means all the angles are equal

There are three angles and they add to 180. 180/3 =60. Each angle is equal to 60

4x+12 =60

Subtract 12 from each side

4x+12-12 = 60-12

4x = 48

Divide by 4

4x/4 =48/4

x=12
