Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify. First, combine like terms:
3x - x + 2 = 12
(3x - x) + 2 = 12
(2x) + 2 = 12
2x + 2 = 12
Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.
PEMDAS =
Parenthesis
Exponents (& Roots)
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction
& is your order of operation.
First, subtract 2 from both sides:
2x + 2 (-2) = 12 (-2)
2x = 12 - 2
2x = 10
Next, divide 2 from both sides:
(2x)/2 = (10)/2
x = 10/2
x = 5
5 is your answer for x.
Check: Plug in 5 for x in the equation. Solve:
3(5) - (5) + 2 = 12
15 - 5 + 2 = 12
10 + 2 = 12
12 = 12 (True)

Answer:
11
Step-by-step explanation:
a = d1+d2 all divided by 2
7+7+4+4/2
14+8/2
22/2
11
Length = 99 because...
since you multiply to get the area, in order to find the missing term of an area (in this case its length), you do the opposite of what you started with...so if you multiplied to get the area, you need to divide to get the missing side...
so 8811 divided by 89 = 99
99 x 89 = 8811
