Answer:
x = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
1/4x +2= -5/8x - 5
Add 5/8x to each side
1/4x +5/8x +2= -5/8x+5/8x - 5
1/4x+5/8x +2= - 5
Subtract 2 from each side
1/4x+5/8x +2-2= - 5-2
1/4x+5/8x = - 7
Get a common denominator
1/4 *2/2 x + 5/8x = -7
2/8x + 5/8x = -7
7/8x = -7
Multiply each side by 8/7
8/7x * 7/8x = -7 *8/7
x = -8
The answer is 95.
First: find the area if the whole rectangle. To do so you would multiply lxw (10x12)
Second: you would find the area of the square. Squares have perfect sides so you would multiply 5x5.
Last: take the sums of both equations. So the it would be 120-25=95.
Answer:
Solution tends to infinity
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the expression
(3x-2)/(x+3)-1=(3x-3)/(x+1)-2
This can also be expressed as;
(3x-2)/x+2 = 3x-3/x-1
3x-2/x+2 = 3(x-1)/x-1
3x-2/x+2 = 3
Cross multiply
3x-2 = 3(x+2)
3x-2 =3x+6
Collect like terms
3x-3x =6+3
0x = 9
x = 9/0
x = infinity
Hence the expression had no solution. It tends to infinity
