Steps to solve:

-15 + 12x = 5x + 7 - 3x

~Combine like terms

-15 + 12x = (5x - 3x) + 7

~Simplify

-15 + 12x = 2x + 7

~Add 15 to both sides

-15 + 15 + 12x = 2x + 7 + 15

~Simplify

12x = 2x + 22

~Subtract 2x to both sides

12x - 2x = 2x - 2x + 22

~Simplify

10x = 22

~Divide 10 to both sides

10x/10 = 22/10

~Simplify

x = 11/5 or 2.2

Best of Luck!

Answer:

x = 2.2

Step-by-step explanation:

-15 + 12x = 5x + 7 - 3x

Combine like terms

-15 +12x = 2x +7

Subtract 2x from each side

-15 +12x -2x = 2x-2x +7

-15 +10x = 7

Add 15 from each side

-15+15 +10x = 7+15

10x = 22

Divide each side by 10

10x/10 = 22/10

x = 2.2

[Right Triangles Only] Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²

  • a is one leg
  • b is another leg
  • c is hypotenuse

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Identify Variables</u>

a = 19

b = <em>x</em>

c = 21

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Substitute [PT]:                    19² + x² = 21²
  2. Isolate <em>x</em> term:                      x² = 21² - 19²
  3. Exponents:                           x² = 441 - 361
  4. Subtract:                               x² = 80
  5. Isolate <em>x</em>:                               x = √80
  6. Simplify:                                x = 4√5

18% of what number is 43?
PIT_PIT [208]
18% of 238.8889 is 43.

Convert the percentage (18) to a decimal by dividing it over 100:
\frac{18}{100} = 0.18

Divide 43 over 0.18:
<span>\frac{43}{0.18} = 238.8889</span>
