Answer:
x = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
12x - 9 = 10x - 15
Now, let's add 15 to both sides of the equation.
12x + 6 = 10x
Now, let's subtract 12x from both sides of the equation.
6 = -2x
Now, let's divide both sides by -2.
-3 = x
The sum would be 1 and 1/2
-4x+26=-2
-4x-26=-2-26
-4x=-28
Divide -28/-4x
X=7
Answer:
12 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
AB and DC are parallel to each other, so they are the same length. Set their lengths equal to each other and solve for x
4x = 7x - 9
4x - 7x = 7x - 7x -9
-3x = -9
-3x/-3 = -9/-3
x = 3
Now solve for AB.
AB = 4x
AB = 4(3)
AB = 12
