Answer:

I think x equals 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

First set it up:

5x-22+3x+2+4x-10=

Group terms together:

5x+3x+4x-22+2-10

Combine like terms or add and subtract them either one you have to do:

12x-30 is what you get, so I think the value of x is 12.

Hope this helps, sorry if not, have a good day. c;

All three sides of the triangle are the same so youcan set two of the equations equal to each other and solve for x:

4x-10 = 3x +2

Add 10 to each side:

4x = 3x + 12

Subtract 3x from each side:

x = 12

Michele wanted to measure the height of her school’s flagpole. She placed a mirror on the ground 48 feet from the flagpole, then

yulyashka [42]

Height of the flagpole = x
distance from flagpole to the mirror = 48 ft
height of Michele = 5 ft
distance from Michele to the mirror = 12 ft

Now, set the proportion.

x/48 = 5/12
48 * x/48 = 5/12 * 48
x = 240/12
x = 20

So, the height of the flagpole is 20 ft.

HOPE THIS HELPS!!!!

There are 27 pupils. There are twice as many boys than girls. how many boys and girls are there

Anna71 [15]

Let x = the numbers of girls
thus
the numbers of boys = 2x
x + 2x = 27
3x = 27
x = 9
2x = 2 . 9 =18
girls = 9 & boys = 18
