Answer:
x = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Distribute
3(x - 6) + 6 = 5x - 4
3x - 18 + 6 = 5x - 4
2) Add the numbers
3x - 18 + 6 = 5x - 4
3x - 12 = 5x - 4
3) Add 12 to both sides
3x - 12 = 5x - 4
3x - 12 + 12 = 5x - 4 + 12
4) Simplify
Add The Numbers:
3x - 12 + 12 = 5x - 4 + 12
3x = 5x - 4 + 12
Add the numbers:
3x = 5x - 4 + 12
3x = 5x + 8
5) Subtract 5x from both sides
3x = 5x + 8
3x - 5x = 5x + 8 - 5x
6) Simplify
Combine like terms:
3x - 5x = 5x + 8 - 5x
-2x = 5x + 8 - 5x
Combine like terms:
-2x = 5x + 8 - 8
-2x = 8
7) Divide both sides by each factor
-2x = 8
-2x/-2 = 8/-2
8) Simplify
Cancel terms that are in both the numerator and denominator:
-2x/2 = 8/-2
Divide the numbers:
x = 8/-2
x = -4
Solution:
x = -4
The width of the cooling tower is 36 meters.
<h3>What is a cooling tower?</h3>
A cooling tower is a vent that is built for the purpose of releasing waste heat back to the atmosphere.
Now we can model the system using; x²/324 - (y² - 90)²/1600. Thus, the width can be obtained from;
2 × ✓324
= 2 × 18
= 36 meters

Missing parts;
Cooling towers are used to remove or expel heat from a process. A cooling tower's walls are modeled by x squared over 324 minus quantity y minus 90 end quantity squared over 1600 equals 1 comma where the measurements are in meters. What is the width of the cooling tower at the base of the structure? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.
36 meters
48 meters

Answer:
I hope ...... hope...... 34/5 and 38/5 ... If it incorrect plz forgive me .... I tried my best ......
First, you try to make sure that both the denominators are the same. In order to do this, you multiply both fractions' numerator and denominator by the other fraction's denominator. Next, you combine like terms in the numerator, and then you simplify the fraction.
The answer is (I think) 112
