Answer:

<u>x = 3</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide each term by  3  and simplify.

x - 4 = \frac{-3}{3}

Cancel the common factor of  3 .

x - 4 = -1

Move all terms not containing  x  to the right side of the equation.

x = -1 + 4

Add -1 and 4.

<u>x = 3</u>

<u>Hope this helps!</u>

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x - 4) = -3

Divide by 3

3/3(x - 4) = -3/3

x-4 = -1

Add 4 to each side

x-4+4 = -1+4

x = 3

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

The answer would be 10.8

Step-by-step explanation:

By finding the missing base side on the original triangle (which is 18), we add 10 to that number to find the base side on the second triangle. We can then use the equation "sin(21.04) = x/30" to find the missing length side (21.04 is the degree measurement).

Hope this helps :)

I don't know how to solve this
sergiy2304 [10]
The answer that I got was side  WX = 12 inches

It says that WY is congruent to XY which means that they are the same. That means that XY is also 3m-4. It also says that the perimeter of the triangle is 76 inches.

With this information I set up an equation:

3m-4 + 3m-4 +m = 76

(The number on the right side is the perimeter given to us in the problem and the numbers on the left side are the 3 side lengths).

I combined like terms on the left side and ended up with:

7m-8=76 

I added 8 to both sides of the equation and got 7m=84.

Finally I divided both sides by 7 and got m=12

m is equivalent to side WX..

Hope this helps!

All of the following are equivalent, except _____.
marusya05 [52]

1. Given (12+3)x, we can sum the numbers in the parenthesis to get 15x

2. Given 12x+3x, we can factor x to get (12+3)x and get the same as 1.

3. Given (12+3x)x, we have to distribute the x and we have 12x+3x^2

4. This expression is already simplified.

Which value of w makes 14=11+w/8 times 6 a true statement?
Vlad [161]

Answer: For the value of w=4, 14=11+\frac{w}{8}\times 6 is a true statement.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the given expression,

14=11+\frac{w}{8}\times 6

=  14=11+\frac{6w}{8}

=  14=11+\frac{3w}{4}

= 3=\frac{3w}{4} ( by subtraction property of equality)

⇒ =\frac{w}{4} ( By division property of equality)

⇒ w=4 ( By multiplication property of equality)
