Step-by-step explanation:
Given:

Let's distribute the parenthesis

Let's subtract
from both sides

Let's add
to both sides

Now, let's divide both sides by
to get
alone

Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
Grade is slope = rise / run
a) horizontal distance 1400 ft (run) vertical distance = 40 ft (rise)
40 / 1400 = 2.85%
b) rise / run = 805.58 / 13780 = 5.84%
Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
i got it right
For perimeter you add up the two sides so 15 + 21 equals 36
Let's use the equation 5x - 20 = 10 as an example for this.
To work backwards from this, you would add the same amount to each side.
You want to isolate the 5x so that you can solve for x.
To do that, you would add 20.
But again, you must add and subtract the same amount to both sides.
So it would look a bit like this:
5x - 20 + 20 = 10 + 20
That would simplify to 5x = 30, or in other words, x = 6.
Basically, you isolate the multiple of the variable then divide the answer to the equation from that multiple.
In the example, 5 is the multiple and after isolating it, the answer was 30.
30 ÷ 5 = 6
x = 6
