Answer:
x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
AB + BC = AC = 28
the way from A to C goes through B.
so, the total way of A to C is the sum of the way from A to B and then from B to C.
=>
(5x + 10) + (2x + 25) = 28
7x + 35 = 28
7x = -7
x = -1
For the GCF the answer is 7
2x + 4 = 12
We're simply just trying to isolate x.
So, we must get x onto it's own side of the equal sign :)
Our first step is to subtract 4 from both sides.
2x + 4 - 4 = 12 - 4
Simplify.
2x = 8
Then, we divide both sides by 2.
2x ÷ 2 = 8 ÷ 2
Simplify.
x = 4
----------
To check your work, simply plug in the value of x into x in the original equation.
In this problem, x = 4, so plug in 4 for x.
2x + 4 = 12
2(4) + 4 = 12
Simplify.
8 + 4 = 12
12 = 12
Therefore, x = 4
