Answer:

x=13

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to isolate the variable

3(x-4)=x+14

distribute

3x-12=x+14

subtract 14 from each side

3x-26=x

subtract 3x from each side

-26=-2x

divide each side by -2

13=x

flip sides

x=13

hope this helps!!! :)

Answer:

X= 8.6666

Step-by-step explanation:

First multiply ehat is on the outside by the inside.

3×X=3x

3×-4= -12.

Now you have 3X-12= X+14

First add -12 to 14.

Your goal is to get all the numbers on one side and the letters on the other side.

12+14=26.

Now you have 3X=26

To get the X by itself divide 3 on both sides.

X÷3= X

26÷3=8.6666

So your answer is X=8.6666

X^2-3=5x simplify this
Alex Ar [27]
To simplify x^2-3 =5x

You would first subtract 5x from both sides

X^3-5x-3

Next you would plug this into the quadratic equation:

X=5+/- the square root of: -5^2 -4(1)(-3)/2(1)

Then simplify,
5+/- the squareroot of 24 + 12 / 2

5+/- The squareroot of 36 /2

5+/- 6 / 2

Then solve if it’s an addition or subtract

5+6/2

X=11/2 or 5 1/2

5-6/2

X= -1/2

The answer is x=-1/2 or x=11/2

Hope this helps

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

A) True , B) True , C) False

Step-by-step explanation:

A) True : Confidence Interval is the interval range around sample statistic, which is certain by extent of confidence level, to consist the actual population parameter.

B) True : Confidence Interval is the interval range around sample statistic, which is certain by extent of confidence level, to consist the actual population parameter.

C) False : Null Hypothesis can be accepted, despite of being actually false. This is called Type 2 Error.

m∠WYX=(2x−1)° and m∠WYZ=(4x+1)°. If ∠WYX and ∠WYZ are complementary, what is the measure of each angle?
Neko [114]

We are given : m∠WYX=(2x−1)° and m∠WYZ=(4x+1)°.

∠WYX and ∠WYZ are complementary.

We know, sum of complementary angles is = 90°.

So, we need to add ∠WYX and ∠WYZ and set it equal to 90°.

m∠WYX + m∠WYZ = 90°.

Plugging values of ∠WYX and ∠WYZ in the above equation, we get

(2x−1)° + (4x+1)° = 90°.

Removing parentheses from both sides,

2x-1 + 4x+1 =90.

Combining like terms,

2x+4x= 6x and -1+1 =0

6x +0 =90.

6x=90.

Dividing both sides by 6.

6x/6 =90/6

x= 15.

Plugging value of x=15.

m∠WYX=(2x−1)° = 2*15 -1 = 30 -1 =29

m∠WYZ=(4x+1)° = 4*15 +1 = 60+1 = 61.

Therefore, ∠WYX=29° and ∠WYZ=61°.

The length of a rectangular frame is 5 cm more than the width. The area inside the frame is 66 square cm. Find the width of the
Ratling [72]
For this case we have that the area is given by:
 A = (w) * (l)
 Where,
 w: width
 l: long
 Substituting we have:
 66 = (w) * (w + 5)
 Rewriting
 w ^ 2 + 5w - 66 = 0
 (w + 11) * (w-6) = 0
 Using the positive root we have:
 w = 6
 Answer:
 
the width of the frame is:
 
w = 6 cm
