(trying to isolate/get x by itself in the equation)
5(x + 6) = 50 Distributive property [distribute 5 into (x + 6)]
5x + 30 = 50 Subtraction [subtract 30 on both sides of the equation]
5x = 20 Division [divide 5 on both sides]
x = 4
Subtraction then division, the 2nd option
Answer:
25 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
radius is half of what the diameter is.
50 / 2 = 25
3^(4x) = 3^(5 - x)
4x = 5 - x
4x + x = 5
5x = 5
x = 5/5 = 1
x = 1
