(5x - 18) - 4x = -36
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
5x − 18 − 4x = −36
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
5x − 18 − 4x = −36
5x + −18 + −4x = −36
(5x + −4x) + (−18) = −36 (Combine Like Terms):
x + −18 = −36
x − 18 = −36
Step 2: Add 18 to both sides.
x − 18 + 18 = −36 + 18
x = −18
Answer: ========> x = -18 is the number
Hope that helps!!!! : )
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
Hence it is correct.. thanks for points.
Suppose the length of the card board was x cm by x cm
After squares of 4cm was cut from the corner, the dimension for the box will be:
length=(x-8) cm
width=(x-8) cm
height=4 cm
thus the volume will be:
V=length*width*height
V=4×(x-8)×(x-8)=144
x²-16x+64=36
this can be simplified to form a quadratic equation given by:
x²-16x+28=0
solving the quadratic equation we get:
x=2 or x=14
Thus we conclude that the original dimensions was:
length=14 cm ; width=14 cm
Answer: x=10
Step-by-step explanation:
=
=
5(x+5)=3(3x-5)
5x+25=9x-15
25=4x-15
4x=40
x=10
