Answer:
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve, we need to isolate the variable, x
5x-18=2(3x-12) +4
Distribute the 2
5x-18=2*3x + 2*-12 +4
5x-18=6x-24+4
Combine like terms (add -24 and 4)
5x-18=6x-20
Add 18 to both sides
5x=6x-2
Subtract 6x from both sides
-x=-2
Divide both sides by -1
x=2
Answer:
Small box weighs 13.75 kg & large box weighs 15.75 kg
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write 2 simultaneous equation and solve for weight of each box.
<em>Let weight of large box be l and small box be s.</em>
<em />
"<u>3 large boxes and 5 small boxes has a total weight of 116 kilograms</u>":

and
"<u>9 large boxes and 7 small boxes has a total weight of 238 kilograms</u>":

<em>Now we can solve for l in the 1st equation and put it into 2nd equation and get s:</em>
<em>
</em>
<em>now,</em>
<em>
</em>
<em />
<em>now we plug in 13.75 into s into equation of l to find s:</em>
<em>

A rug maker is using a pattern that is a rectangle with a length of 96 inches and a width of 60 inches. The rug maker wants to increase each dimension by a different amount. Let l and w be the increases in the length and width. Write and simplify an expression for the perimeter of the new pattern.
p=2(96+l)+2(60+w)
This is the equation. p is for perimeter. (96+l) represents the original length plus the change in length. The 2 before (96+l) represents that there is one length on each side of the rectangle.
Same for the width. (60+w) represents the original width plus the change in width. The 2 before (60+w) represents that there is one width on each side of the rectangle.
The simplified equation is p=(192+2l)+(120+2w) (this is your answer)
I hope this helps!
