ANSWER: the man bought 5 shirts
Because you're trying to make them congruent, equal the two expressions to each other.
So, for #10 you would equal them so it would look like this.
2x+2=5x-19
Then you would just go ahead and simplify
2x+2=5x-19
-2x -2x
---------------
2= 3x -19
+19 +19
---------------
21=3x
--- ----
3 3
x=7
This means that x should be 7. You can check this just by plugging it in
2x+2
2(7)+2 = 16
5x-19
5(7)-19= 16
Same with #11.
x+8=3x-14
-x -x
--------------
8=2x-14
+14 +14
--------------
22=2x
--- ----
2 2
x=11
Check.
x+8
11+8= 19
3x-14
3(11) - 14 = 19
Answer:
Yes, they are equivilant
Step-by-step explanation:
5(3m+2p)-4m = 13p+11m-3p
Distribute 5: 15m+10p-4m = 13p+11m-3p
Combine like terms: 15m+(-4m) = 11m ; 13p+(-3p) = 10p
11m+10p = 11m+10p
Question a is 48 i think! because if you do 12 x how many side there are. it’s 4 so 12 x 4
