Make the denominator into 10x:
5x/10x +20/10x=x(x+4)/10x
5x+20=x(x+4)
5x+20=x²+4x
x²-x-20=0
(x-5)(x+4)=0
x=5 or -4
the third choice is correct.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is one of those formulas of algebra and geometry that you need to learn. If you know the radius and the height of a vertical cylinder, then its volume is equal to the (base area) times the (height), which, symbolically, are
V = (base area)(height)
Here,
V = πr²· h where πr² is the area of the base (which is a circle of radius r) and h is the height of the cylinder.
Let the four consecutive numbers be x, x+1, x+2, and x+3.
The sum of the four numbers is 54, therefore
x + (x+1) + (x+2) + (x+3) = 54
4x + 6 = 54
4x = 54 - 6 = 48
x = 12
Answer:
The four numbers are 12, 13, 14, and 15
Answer:
<u><em>Answer is below</em></u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>10=3x-8</em></u>
<u><em>always remember to flip the equation</em></u>
<u><em>3x-8=10</em></u>
<u><em>Add 8 to both sides</em></u>
<u><em>3x-8(+8)=10(+8)</em></u>
<u><em>3x=18</em></u>
<u><em>Divide both sides by 3</em></u>
<u><em>3x/3=18/3</em></u>
<u><em>x=6</em></u>
