Answer:

x=\frac{b-ac}{a+2} ; a\neq -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply both sides: by <em>x+c</em>

a(x+c)=\frac{b-2x}{x+c} (x+c)

Simplify: a(x+c)=b-2x

Expand: ax+ac=b-2x

Subtract <em>ac</em> from both sides: ax+ac-ac=b-2x-ac

Simplify: ax=b-2x-ac

Add<em> 2x</em> to both sides: ax+2x=b-2x-ac+2x

Simplify: ax+2x=b-ac

Factor <em>ax+2x</em>: x(a+2)

x(a+2)=b-ac

Divide both sides by <em>a+2: </em>\frac{x(a+2)}{a+2} = \frac{b}{a+2} - \frac{ac}{a+2} ; a≠-2

Simplify: x=\frac{b-ac}{a+2} ; a\neq -2

A shirt and a tie together cost $57. The shirt costs $33 more than the tie. What is the cost of the shirt?
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

Shirt: $45 , Tie: $12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s be the price of the shirt

Let t be the price of the tie

Given the information from the question,

s + t = 57 - Equation 1

s - t = 33 - Equation 2

We will use substitution method to find the prices.

We will rearranging equation 1.

s = 57 - t

We will substitute s into equation 2.

57 - t - t = 33

57 - 2t = 33

-2t = 33 - 57

-2t = -24

t = -24 / -2

= 12

We now substitute t into Equation 1.

s + 12 = 57

s = 57 - 12

= 45

From here we know, the shirt costs $45 and the tie costs $12

Schach [20]

Answer:

Ok so what you are suppose to do is find the area

Step-by-step explanation:

Which here is an explanation of how to find area (The simplest (and most commonly used) area calculations are for squares and rectangles. To find the area of a rectangle, multiply its height by its width. For a square you only need to find the length of one of the sides (as each side is the same length) and then multiply this by itself to find the area.)
