Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Original Equation:

3(x + 2) = 2(x + 5)

Use distributive property

3 · x = 3x

3 · 2 = 6

Your equation should look like this now:

3x + 6 = 2(x + 5)

Use distributive property for the other side

2 · x = 2x

2 · 5 = 10

Your equation:

3x + 6 = 2x + 10

Subtract 6 from both sides

3x = 2x + 4

Subtract 2x from both sides

1x = 4

Divide both sides by 1

x = 4

Hope this helped :)

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x+2) = 2(x+5)

Distribute

3x+6 = 2x+10

Subtract 2x from each side

3x-2x+6 = 2x-2x+10

x +6 = 10

Subtract 6 from each side

x+6-6 = 10-6

x = 4

Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through the point (8, 2) and is parallel to the graph of the e
Digiron [165]

Answer:

y = 4x - 30

Step-by-step explanation:

The general slope-intercept equation for a straight line is

y = mx + b

For y = 4x – 3, m = 4

=====

The other equation passes through (8,2) and has slope 4:

y = 4x +b     Set x = 8, y = 2.

2 = 4×8 + b

2 = 32 + b     Subtract 32 from each side

b= -30

The equation for the second graph is

y = 4x – 30

The graph below shows Equation (1) as a red line.

The graph of Equation 2 is the green line that passes through (8,2), runs parallel to Equation (1), and has a y-intercept at (0,-30.

If it is 63 in across, and each part is equal, the equation so solve this is:  63=3x
So, you take 63=3x and divide each side by 3
63/3=3x/3
Then simplify
21=x 
This means each panel is 21 inches wide.

tangare [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Katie is doing an inventory at American Eagle.There is 125 pairs of jeans. 36 pairs of jeans are women's skinny jeans.

Total jeans = 125

Women jeans = 36

To find percent of all the jeans are women's skinny jeans

we divide number of womens jeans by total jeans and multiply the result by 100

Required percent = \frac{36}{125} *100\\= 36*0.8\\=28.8

28.8% is answer
