-2 (2x + 11) = 5x + 14

Mathematics

Answer:

x=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

First, write the expression and distribute.

-2(2x+11)=5x+14

-4x-22=5x+14

Add one of the variables to the other side (it makes solving a lot easier). I'll add 4x to both sides because it won't result in a negative x.

-4x-22=5x+14

<u>+4x      +4x</u>

-22=9x+14

Now, subtract 14 on both sides.

-22=9x+14

<u>-14        -14</u>

-36=9x

Divide both sides by 9.

-36=9x

<u>/9   /9</u>

-4=x  or  x=-4 (they both mean the same thing)

Have a wonderful day! I hope this helped :3

What is the angle of DBC
Licemer1 [7]
When added, these two angles are supplementary, meaning that their sum is 180. This means that we can do the following to find x, and eventually DBC:

3x+67+4x+50=180
Simplifies to:
7x+117=180
Then by the Subtraction Prop. of Equality:
7x=63
Then divide by 7 on both sides to get that x=9.

We then substitute 9 into angle DBC.
4(9)+50
=36+50
DBC=86
