Answer:

so 9 - x - 5x = 9 because the 9 means x so its making the number negative. so - 9 and the 9 at the end = 9 don't worry about that bc you can subtract 5x

Step-by-step explanation: so what I'm saying is theirs many ways to solve that its just you don't know the level or something similar to that I'm only helping because I'm bored btw.

Kate sold 12 of her paintings and purchased 7 more. if kate has 21 paintings now, how many paintings did she have to begin with?

kicyunya [14]

First, let x or any variable represent the number of paintings Kate initially has. After selling 12 of it, her paintings now becomes only x - 12. Then, she purchased 7 more making the number of her paintings become x - 12 + 7 = x - 5. This number tantamount to 21.

x - 5 = 21 ; x = 26

Thus, Kate initially had 26 paintings.

One leg of a right triangle is 7 inches longer than the smaller leg and the hypotenuse is 8 inches longer than the smaller leg.

Makovka662 [10]

Smaller leg = x
longer leg = y
hypotenuse = z

y=x+7
z=x+8

due to
${z}^{2} = {x}^{2} + {y}^{2} \\ (x + 8) ^{2} = {x}^{2} + (x + 7) ^{2} \\ {x}^{2} + 16x + 64 = {x}^{2} + {x}^{2} + 14x + 49 \\ {x}^{2} + 16x + 64 = 2 {x}^{2} + 14x + 49 \\ {x}^{2} - 2 {x}^{2} + 16x - 14x + 64 - 49 = 0 \\ - {x}^{2} + 2x + 15 = 0 \\ {x}^{2} - 2x - 15 = 0 \: \: (multiplied \: by \: - 1) \\ (x - 5)(x + 3) = 0 \\ then \: \: x = 5 \: \: or \: \: x = - 3$
but x cannot be -3
so smaller leg is 5 inches

then longer leg = 5+7 = 12 inches
and hypotenuse = 5+8 = 13 inches
