Answer:

x = -3

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
  • Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>

5(x + 4) = -2(-4 - x) + 3

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Distribute:                                   5x + 20 = 8 + 2x + 3
  2. Combine like terms:                   5x + 20 = 2x + 11
  3. Subtract 2x on both sides:        3x + 20 = 11
  4. Subtract 20 on both sides:        3x = -9
  5. Divide 3 on both sides:              x = -3

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute:                    5(-3 + 4) = -2(-4 - -3) + 3
  2. Simplify:                        5(-3 + 4) = -2(-4 + 3) + 3
  3. Add:                              5(1) = -2(-1) + 3
  4. Multiply:                        5 = 2 + 3
  5. Add:                              5 = 5

Here we see that 5 does indeed equal 5. ∴ x = -3 is a solution of the equation.

And we have our final answer!

Answer:

x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

first multiply them out: 5x+20=2x+11

then subtract both sides by 2x: 3x+20=11

subtract both sides by 20: 3x=-9

divide both sides by 3: x=-3

Time Limit!
DENIUS [597]
The correct answer is B.3,072. The method is quite simple all you need to do is add the previous number to itself in order to get the next term e.g 3+3=6.............24+24= 48 until the eleventh term.

Hope this helps ya

To answer this question, you need to know that a scale factor is the relationship between one dimension of the shape.  

Because the information given to us is a two-dimensional measurement, you will need to consider that when getting the answer.

The ratios of the areas of the  triangles is 3/5 x 3/5 or 9/25.

To determine the area of the larger triangle, you will solve the following equation using the information you know.  x is the area of the larger triangle.

9/25x = 576; solve for x by dividing both sides by 9/25
x = 1600 square inches

The area of the larger triangle is 1600 square inches.

A Baker Had 1/3 Cups Of Suger . he Added 1/9 Cups To It Find The Total Number Of Sugar . ( Can Someone Help Me Out)
ella [17]

The total number of sugar will be 9/4.

<h3>What is the unitary method?</h3>

The unitary method is a method for solving a problem by the first value of a single unit and then finding the value by multiplying the single value.

A Baker Had 1/3 Cups Of Sugar.

he Added 1/9 Cups To It

Let the number of sugar be x

x (1/3)  + 1/9x = 1

3x + 1x = 9

4x = 9

x = 9/4

Hence, the total number of sugar will be 9/4.
