Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

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

5x - 15 = 2x + 6                    

    + 15         + 15                     Switch sides to the liked terms

5x = 2x + 6 + 15

-2x  -2x                                   Switch sides to the liked terms

5x - 2x = 6 + 15  

<u>3x</u> = 21                                      Divide

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation: 5(x-3) = 2(x+3)

Step 1: Simplify the equation.

5 (x − 3) = 2(x + 3)

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

5x + −15 = 2x + 6

5x − 15 = 2x + 6

Step 2: Subtract 2x.

5x − 15 −2x = 2x + 6 −2x

3x − 15 = 6

Step 3: Add 15.

3x − 15 + 15 = 6 + 15

3x = 21

Step 4: Divide by 3.

\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{21}{3}

Step 5: Divide 21 by 3.

The answer is x = 7.

A right triangle is displayed.
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

You have to use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the other side, which will be your base in the Area formula (A=1/2bh). So the Pythagorean theorem would be 36^2 + b^2 = 60^2. This gives you 48 in for your base/missing side length. Then, you plug it into the area formula. So, A=1/2(48) (36). This gives you 864 in^2 for the area of your triangle.

The following sequence is an arithmetic sequence. [-9, -2, 5, 12,...]
egoroff_w [7]

Answer: The common difference is 7, and the next two terms are 19 and 26.

Step-by-step explanation:

Between -9 and -2 there is +7, same with between -2 and 5, as well as 5 and 12. Adding 7 to 12 again gets 19, and adding 7 to 19 gets 26 as well for the next two terms.
