Hey there!!
Given equation :
... 3x - 2 + 5x = 4x + 5 - 2x
Combining like terms :
... 8x - 2 = 2x - 5
Subtracting 2x on both sides :
... 6x - 2 = - 5
Adding 2 on both sides :
... 6x = - 3
Dividing by 6 on both sides :
... x = -1/2 = -0.5
Hence, the answer is -0.5
Hope my answer helps!
the area in square feet is 4400. (because to find the area of the rectangle you multiply the 2 side lengths, 100 and 80 which gives you 8000, then you find the area of the square, multiply 60 by 60 which is 3600, then you subtract the total area of the backyard by the area taken up by the garden, 8000-3600, which gives you your total of 4400.)
The probability of landing in the shaded area is 2 out of 5. This can be written as a fraction
or a decimal 0.4
