Answer:
x =3
Step-by-step explanation:
3(4x + 4) = 2(5x+9) - 12
First step is to open the brackets by multiplying. It becomes
3×4x + 3×4 = 2×5x + 2×9 -12
12x + 12 = 10x + 18 - 12
Collecting like terms on the right hand side and left hand side of the equation, it becomes
12x -10x = 18 -12 -12
2x = -6
Negative sign on the right hand side of the equation overwhelms the positive sign on left hand side of the equation. It becomes
2x = -6
x = -6/2 = -3
Checking
3(4×-3 + 4) = 2(5×-3+9) - 12
-24 = -12-12= -24
So x = -3
Answer:
85-86%
Step-by-step explanation:
Make it an equation
You want to find the percent out of a hundred, so 42 is 100 since it is all of the questions and 36 is the unknown percent X
36/42 = X/100
36 X
42 100
Cross multiply
Do math and solve for X
36 x 100 = 42 x X
3600=42X
X=85.71
Answer:
2+x
Step-by-step explanation:
2(1-x)=2-2x
2-2x+3x=2+x
Answer:
Height = 1 inch
Step-by-step explanation:
area of triangle = 1/2 x base x height
11.5 =1/2 x 23 x height
