Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{6\left(x-2\right)}{2}=\frac{3\left(x+5\right)}{8}\\\mathrm{Apply\:fraction\:cross\:multiply:\:if\:}\frac{a}{b}=\frac{c}{d}\mathrm{\:then\:}a\cdot \:d=b\cdot \:c\\6\left(x-2\right)\cdot \:8=2\cdot \:3\left(x+5\right)\\Simplify\\48\left(x-2\right)=6\left(x+5\right)\\\mathrm{Expand\:}48\left(x-2\right):\quad 48x-96\\48\left(x-2\right)\\\mathrm{Apply\:the\:distributive\:law}:\quad \:a\left(b-c\right)=ab-ac\\a=48,\:b=x,\:c=2\\=48x-48\cdot \:2\\\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:48\cdot \:2=96

=48x-96\\\mathrm{Expand\:}6\left(x+5\right):\quad 6x+30\\6\left(x+5\right)\\\mathrm{Apply\:the\:distributive\:law}:\quad \:a\left(b+c\right)=ab+ac\\a=6,\:b=x,\:c=5\\=6x+6\cdot \:5\\\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:6\cdot \:5=30\\=6x+30\\48x-96=6x+30\\\mathrm{Add\:}96\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides}\\48x-96+96=6x+30+96\\Simplify\\48x=6x+126\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}6x\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\48x-6x=6x+126-6x\\\mathrm{Simplify}\\42x=126\\\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}42

\frac{42x}{42}=\frac{126}{42}\\Simplify\\x=3

Find the 13th term of the arithmetic sequence -3x+7, -5x+3, -7x-1, ...
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

a₁₃ = - 27x - 41

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is

a_{n} = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = - 3x + 7

d = a₂ - a₁ = - 5x + 3 - (- 3x + 7)

                 = - 5x + 3 + 3x - 7

                 = - 2x - 4

Then

a₁₃ = - 3x + 7 + 12(- 2x - 4)

     = - 3x + 7 - 24x - 48

     = - 27x - 41

Which of the following sets of angles sum to 180°?<br> picture included, please help.
eduard

Answer:

Choice 3

Step-by-step explanation:

add 63 and 64 which gives you 127. Then you subtract 180 and 127. This gives you 53. 63+53+64=180. Know that the angle is 180 degrees too so you don't even have to do math.
