I think that the answer is 8
if you want to check if it is right input 8 in place of b
<span>T
Width is 8 and the length is 48! Then add all sides, 8+8+48+48=112.<span>
</span></span>
-2(x + 3) = 8
Multiply -2 with x and 3
-2x -6 = 8
Now add 6 to both sides
-2x -6 = 8
+6 +8
-2x = 16
Lastly divide -2 from both sides to find x
-2x = 16
—— —-
-2x -2x
X = -8
Answer: x = -7
Step-by-step explanation:
2(6 + 3x) + 1 = - 5 + 3(x - 1)
(2) (6) + (2) (3x) + 1 = -5 + (3) (x) + (3) (-1)
12 + 6x + 1 = - 5 + 3x + - 1
( 6x ) + ( 12 - 1 ) = ( 3x ) + ( -5 + -3 )
6x + 13 = 3x - 8
6x + 13 - 3x = 3x - 8 - 3x
3x + 13 = -8
3x + 13 - 13 = -8 - 13
3x = -21
3x/3 -21/3
X = -7
