The solution of the given equation (x + 5) - ( 2x - 3) = 6 is 2.
<h3>What is a linear equation?</h3>
A linear equation is an equation that has the variable of the highest power of 1.
The standard form of a linear equation is of the form Ax + B = 0.
The given equation is;
(x + 5) - ( 2x - 3) = 6
To solve;
(x + 5) - ( 2x - 3) = 6
Distribute the negative;
(x + 5) - 2x + 3 = 6
we need to get the like terms together;
x - 2x + 5+ 3 = 6
-x + 8 = 6
Subtract 8 from both sides, we get;
-x = -2
x = 2
Hence, the solution of the given equation is 2.

Answer:
7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
3/8 = x/20
3(20) = 8x
8x = 60
x = 60/8
x = 7.5
Water used for shower = 10.6 x 7 = 74.2 liters
Water used for bath = 35 x 120 x 40 = 168 000 cm³ = 168 liters
Difference = 168 - 74.2 = 93.8 liters.
Answer: She saved 93.8 liters of water by showering instead of taking a bath.
Answer:
D. 720cm squared is the answer
Area of rectangular prism is given by:
A=2(wl+hl+lw)
where w=width h=height, l=length
checking for given options
1. 8 ft, by 4ft by 3ft
Area = 136 square feet
5. 3 feet by 5 feet by 7 feet
Area =142 square feet
so our first and last option matches the requirement of area less than 160 square feet.
