Answer:

x = 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

5 (x + 20) = 7 x + 30

Expand out terms of the left hand side:

5 x + 100 = 7 x + 30

Subtract 7 x from both sides:

(5 x - 7 x) + 100 = (7 x - 7 x) + 30

5 x - 7 x = -2 x:

-2 x + 100 = (7 x - 7 x) + 30

7 x - 7 x = 0:

100 - 2 x = 30

Subtract 100 from both sides:

(100 - 100) - 2 x = 30 - 100

100 - 100 = 0:

-2 x = 30 - 100

30 - 100 = -70:

-2 x = -70

Divide both sides of -2 x = -70 by -2:

(-2 x)/(-2) = (-70)/(-2)

(-2)/(-2) = 1:

x = (-70)/(-2)

The gcd of -70 and -2 is -2, so (-70)/(-2) = (-2×35)/(-2×1) = (-2)/(-2)×35 = 35:

Answer:

x =  35

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x+20)= 7x+30

5x + 100 = 7x + 30

-30                   -30

5x + 70 = 7x

-5x          -5x

70 = 2x

/2      /2

35 = x

The owner of an office building is expanding the length and width of a parking lot by the same amount. The lot currently measure
Gnoma [55]

The best and most correct answer among the choices provided by your question is the second choice or letter B "20".

The current area is 120(80)=9600 and he want to expand it by 4400 so that the new area will be 9600+4400=14000 

14000=(120+x)(80+x) 

14000=9600+200x+x^2 

x^2+200x-4400=0 

x^2-20x+220x-4400=0 

x(x-20)+220(x-20)=0 

(x+220)(x-20)=0, since x is an increase it must be greater than zero so 

x=20ft 

(120+20)(80+20)=14000ft^2


I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.

I believe it would be B. Because, an isoceles triangle is a triangle with 2 equal sides and 1 is not equal ... SO, more than one triangle could be drawn from this information. Because, 55 could be the uneven side for many triangles. So, B.  Andy is incorrect, because more than one triangle can be drawn from the given info. :)
