First, it would help to simplify each side more:
Left side: 36 + 3(4x - 9) = 36 + 12x - 27 = 12x + 9
Right side: c(2x + 1) + 25 = 2cx + c + 25
Write the simplified equation:
12x + 9 = 2cx + c + 25
Usually when there is no solution, the coefficients of the variable on both sides are the same, so we can make the coefficient if x on the right side into 12:
2cx >>> 12x
Then, c must equal 6 to make this true.
The answer is choice (C).
4c+3=15
You need to get rid of the 3
So you minus it from each side so you
4c=12
12/4=3
So c =3
The answer is B because -26/5= -5.2
Answer:
Width is 10 Length is 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter = 60
Length = W + 10
P = 2L + 2W Write the equation for perimeter
60 = 2(W + 10) + 2W Substitute your variables
60 = 4W + 20
- 20 - 20 Subtract 20 from both sides
40 = 4W Divide both sides by 4
10 = W
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
(8/3) / (-4/9)
when dividing fractions you use the acronym k.c.f (keep change flip)
keep the first fraction
change the operation (divide to multiply)
flip the other fraction
(8/-3) x (9/4)
after re-writing your expression, you want to solve
do this by multiplying both numerators by each other and same with the denominators
(-8x9) / (3x-4)
then you get a new fraction,
-72/-12
simplify,
-72/-12 = 6 (multiplying/dividing 2 negatives will always give you a positive)
