Answer:
x = 52
Step-by-step explanation:
28 + x - 4 + 2x = 180
Simplify the left side
3x + 24 = 180
Subtract 24 from each side
3x = 156
Divide each side by 3
x = 52
Answer:
Student B is correct
Student A failed to distribute -4 and -6 when opening the brackets in the first step
Step-by-step explanation:
The solution Student A gave was:
2x - 4(3x + 6) = -6(2x + 1) - 4
2x - 12x + 6 = -12x + 1 - 4
-10x + 6 = -12x - 3
2x = -9
x = -4 _1 2 ( -4 1/2)
The solution Student B gave was:
2x - 4(3x + 6) = -6(2x + 1) - 4
2x - 12x - 24 = -12x - 6 - 4
-10x - 24 = -12x - 10
2x = 14
x = 7
Student B is correct.
Explanation of the error:
Student A failed to distribute -4 and -6 when opening the brackets in the first step.
That is,
2x - 4(3x + 6) = -6(2x + 1) - 4
To open this bracket, we will distribute, -4 and -6 so that we get
2x (-4 × 3x) + (-4 × +6) = (-6×2x) + (-6 × +1) - 4
Then we will get
2x -12x -24 = -12x -6 -4
Adding the like terms
-10x - 24 = -12x - 10
Collecting like terms
-10x + 12x = -10 + 24
∴ 2x = 14
x = 14 / 2
Hence,
x = 7
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
the top part with the variables filled in is 0 + (2x4) + (3x4x2) which is 32
the bottom part would be (3x0) + 4 which is 4
Answer:
(^6√x^5) (√y)
(The 6 belongs in the left on top of the square root btw)
For x the 6 moves to the front of the square root while the 5 becomes the power of x.
For y, the power to the 1/2 is the same as a square root.
Isosceles triangle because it has two equal sides
