Solve for x: 3x – 2(6 - x) = 7x + 2(5 + x) – 6

Mathematics
1 answer:
MAVERICK [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-2(6-x)=7x+2(5+x)-6

First, distribute.

3x+ −12+ 2x = 7x + 10 + 2x −6

Combine like terms on each side.

5x − 12= 9x + 4

To solve for x, pick a side to solve. I will solve the right x.

5x - 12 = 9x + 4

-5x         -5x

-12 = 4x + 4

Subtract 4 to isolate the variable.

-16 = 4x

Divide 4.

-4 = x

Rationalize the numerator of (√(3)-9)/4.<br><br>When I get -78/4√(3)+36. Is that correct?

That's what I got. to rationalize the numerator you have to multiply by the conjugate, in this case (√3 + 9) / (√3 + 9), which is what it looks like you did.
