-3 times (x+8)=-21
-3(x+8)=-21
distributive property=a(b+c)=ab+ac
-3(x+8)=-3x+(-3)(8)=-3x-24
-3x-24=-21
add 3x to both sides
-24=-21+3x
add 21 to both sides
-3=3x
divide both sids by 3
-1=x
x=-1
Answer:
292 in² (3 s.f.)
Step-by-step explanation:
The figure is made up of 2 semicircles and a rectangle.
Please see attached picture for full solution.
They want you to solve it and find the total change ?
Rotate the one on the left to look like the one on the right.
BC = SP
AB = SR
AD = RQ
CD = PQ
A = R
B = S
C = P
D = Q
Using the intersecting chord theorem:
a x b = c x d
x+21 * 4 = x+3 * 10
Simplify:
4x+84 = 10x+30
Subtract 30 from both sides:
4x + 54 = 10x
Subtract 4x from both sides:
54 = 6x
Divide both sides by 6:
x = 9
