Answer:

27 and 36

Step-by-step explanation:

x + (x - 9) = 63

2x - 9 = 63

add 9 to both sides

2x = 72

Divide both sides by2

x = 36

x - 9 = 36 - 9

x - 9 = 27

Answer: I got -2

I plugged -6 in for y and then simplified. -6 x -6 = 36. 7 x -6 = -42. So 36 - 42 = -6. -6 + 4 = -2

Solve the expression for x: (17 – 5) (x + 6) = 3x – 12

patriot [66]

(17-5)(x+6)-(3x-12)=0

12(x+6)-(3x-12)=0

12x-(3x-12)+72=0

12x-3x+12+72=0

9x+84=0

9x=-84

x=9+1/3

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x)=36x^5-44x^4-28x^3\\\\g(x)=4x^2\\\\\dfrac{f(x)}{g(x)}=\dfrac{36x^5-44x^4-28x^3}{4x^2}\\\\\dfrac{f(x)}{g(x)}=\dfrac{(4x^2)(9x^3)-(4x^2)(11x^2)-(4x^2)(7x)}{4x^2}\\\\\dfrac{f(x)}{g(x)}=\dfrac{(4x^2)(9x^3-11x^2-7x)}{4x^2}\qquad\text{cancel}\ 4x^2\\\\\dfrac{f(x)}{g(x)}=9x^3-11x^2-7x$
