Answer: x = 3


Step-by-step explanation:Simplifying

12 + 5x = 18 + 3x

Solving

12 + 5x = 18 + 3x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.

12 + 5x + -3x = 18 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 5x + -3x = 2x

12 + 2x = 18 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0

12 + 2x = 18 + 0

12 + 2x = 18

Add '-12' to each side of the equation.

12 + -12 + 2x = 18 + -12

Combine like terms: 12 + -12 = 0

0 + 2x = 18 + -12

2x = 18 + -12

Combine like terms: 18 + -12 = 6

2x = 6

Divide each side by '2'.

x = 3

Simplifying

x = 3

Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, get your variables and constants separated on either side of the =

Whatever you do to one side, you have to do to the other.

12 + 5x = 18 + 3x

subtract 3x from both sides to cancel out the 3x on the right:

12 + 5x - 3x = 18 + 3x - 3x    

12 + 2x = 18

subtract 12 from both sides to cancel out the 12 on the left side:

12 - 12 + 2x = 18 - 12    

now just solve for x

2x = 6

divide both sides by 2 to cancel out the 2 on the left side:

2x / 2 = 6 / 2

x = 3

Answer:

Original Equation: s + 3 1/2 = 8 1/2

Subtract 3/12 from both sides: s + 3 1/2 - 3 1/2 = 8 1/2 - 3 1/2

Simplify: s = 5

So, A is the correct answer.

Square root of 648.7209 by division method
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

25.47

Step-by-step explanation:

This root can be rewritten as:

\sqrt{\frac{6487209}{10000} }

\sqrt{\frac{6487209}{100^{2}} }

\frac{1}{100}\cdot \sqrt{6487209}

Since 6487209 is a multple of 3, the expression can be rearranged as follows:

\frac{1}{100}\cdot \sqrt{3\times 2162403}

2162403 is also a multiple of 3, then:

\frac{1}{100}\cdot \sqrt{3^{2}\times 720801}

\frac{3}{100}\cdot \sqrt{720801}

720801 is a multiple of 3, then:

\frac{3}{100}\cdot \sqrt{3\times 240267}

240267 is a multiple of 3, then:

\frac{3}{100}\times \sqrt{3^{2}\times 80089}

\frac{9}{100}\cdot \sqrt{80089}

80089 is a multiple of 283, then:

\frac{9}{100}\cdot \sqrt{283^{2}}

\frac{9\times 283}{100}

\frac{2547}{100}
