Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x-4) =3(x+4)

sum is addition

difference is subtraction

2 is multiply by2

solve 2(x-4) =3(x+4) distribute on both sides

2x - 8 = 3x + 12 add 8 on both sides

2x = 3x + 20 subtract 3x on both sides

-x = 20 multiply by -1

x = -20

Solve for the unknown in the equation <br> 3(x-1)=21
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

The main idea of how to solve it is to isolate the variable. Whatever you multiply, divide, add, or subtract on one side, you must do the same to the other side so that both sides are equal.

3(x-1) = 21

3(x-1) / 3 = 21 / 3

x - 1 = 7

  + 1 + 1

x = 6

A square with one side length is represented by the expression 4(2x+3)+16+8x. Use the properties of operations to write three di
finlep [7]

Answer:

The other sides of the square are

8x+12+16+8x,(8x+8x)+(12+16) and 16x+28  

Step-by-step explanation:

Square:

  1. The all sides of a square equal.
  2. The sum of four angles is 360°.
  3. The diagonals bisect each other.
  4. The length of diagonals are equal.

Distributive property:

a(b+c)= ab+ac

Commutative property:

a+b= b+a

Like terms:

Like terms are terms that have the same variables and the power of the variable also same.

Given the length of the side is

=4(2x+3)+16+8x

=4.2x+4.3+16+8x [ Apply distributive property]

=8x+12+16+8x

=(8x+8x)+(12+16)   [ separating like terms]

=16x+28                [Adding like terms]

The other sides of the square are

8x+12+16+8x,(8x+8x)+(12+16) and 16x+28
