Answer:

x=9/2

Step-by-step explanation:

First distribute 2

2x-4-5=3-2x+6

Add the like terms on the left side -4-5=-9

2x-9=3-2x+6

Do this with the right side 3+6=9

2x-9=-2x+9

Add 9 from the left side to the right side

2x=-2x+18

Then add 2x from the right side to the left side

4x=18

Divide 4 from both sides

x=18/4 or 9/2

Answer:

9/2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-4-5= 3-2x+6  distribute 2 through the parentheses

2x-4-5=9-2x     add the numbers

2x-9=9-2x calculate the difference

2x+2x-9= 9  move variable to left side and change sign

2x+2x= 9+9 move constant to right side and change sign

4x= 18  collect like terms

x=9/2 divide both sides by 4

How would you do number 12 and 15?
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

x_1=x_2=-\dfrac{2}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

For the quadratic equation ax^2+bx+c=0 the discriminant is defined as

D=b^2-4ac

and the quadratic formula for the roots gives us two roots:

x_1=\dfrac{-b-\sqrt{D}}{2a}

and

x_2=\dfrac{-b+\sqrt{D}}{2a}

For the equation 9x^2 +12x+4=0 use quadratic formula to find roots:

D=12^2-4\cdot 9\cdot 4=144-144=0

So,

x_1=x_2=\dfrac{-12\pm \sqrt{0}}{2\cdot 9}=-\dfrac{12}{18}=-\dfrac{2}{3}

Dema's truck gets 32 mpg on the highway and 18 mpg in the city. The amount of gas he uses A (in gal) is given by A=118c+132h, wh
Zigmanuir [339]

We conclude that he drove 176 miles on the highway

<h3>how many highway miles did he drive?</h3>

Here we have the equation:

A = (1/18)*c + (1/32)*h

Where A is the consumption in gallons of gas, c is the number of miles driven in the city and h is the number of miles driven in the highway.

Here we know that:

A = 8 gallons of gas.

c = 45 miles

Replacing that in the above equation, we can find the value of h.

8 =  (1/18)*45 + (1/32)*h

8 - (1/18)*45 = (1/32)*h

32*(8 - (1/18)*45) = h = 176

We conclude that he drove 176 miles on the highway
