Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

3(x - 2) + 8 = 2(x + 5)

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. (Parenthesis) Distribute:                                                                               3x - 6 + 8 = 2x + 10
  2. Combine like terms:                                                                                     3x + 2 = 2x + 10
  3. {Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 2x on both sides:                    x + 2 = 10
  4. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 2 on both sides:                      x = 8

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                                                                                               3(8 - 2) + 8 = 2(8 + 5)
  2. (Parenthesis) Subtract/Add:                                                                         3(6) + 8 = 2(13)
  3. Multiply:                                                                                                         18 + 8 = 26
  4. Add:                                                                                                               26 = 26

Here we see that 26 does indeed equal 26.

∴ x = 8 is the solution to the equation.

a solid of sphere of radius 'r' is melted and recast into the shape of a solid cone of height 'r,' .find the radius of cone
alex41 [277]
Vol of sphere =4/3πr³
let the radius of cone be x.
vol of cone =1/3πx²h
when h=r, =1/3πrx²
since they have the same volume,
4/3πr³=1/3πrx²
4πr³=πrx²
x²=4r²
x=2r (radius)

Find the value of <br> x<br> y, and <br> z in the parallelogram below.
EastWind [94]
Let A be the angle of 79 degrees
B be the angle of (5y-4) degrees
C be the angle of (x+5) degrees
D be the angle of (9z-7) degrees
According to the property of parallelogram
Opposite angles are equal
We get, angle A = angle C
Since angle A = 79 degrees
And angle C = (x+5) degrees
We get, x+5=79
=> x=79-5=74.

Angle B = Angle D
(5y-4)=(9z-7)
Since there’s two variables here, we can’t use the property of “opposite angles are equivalent”
We have to use another property which is adjacent angles are equal
Therefore, we can find angle D
Angle D + Angle A=180
=> 9z-7 =180-79
z=108/9
z=12
Since (5y-4)=(9z-7)
Substitute z=12 in
We get, 5y-4=101
y= 105/5
y= 21
Therefore, x=74, y=21 and z=12.
