(x-4)² + (x-2)² = x²
(x² - 8x + 16 ) + (x² - 4x + 4) = x
2x² -12x + 20 = x
2x²-12x + 20 - x = 0
2x² - 13x + 20 = 0
(2x-5) (x-4) = 0
2x-5 = 0
2x = 5
x = ⁵/₂
x-4 = 0
x = 4
so x₁ = ⁵/₂ , and x₂ = 4
To calculate to volume of a rectangular prism you use the formula l × w × h = V
l, w, and h are the sides, and V is the volume
So... 24 × 10 × h = 2,880
h = 2,880 / 240
h = 12
Answer:
x = 80
Step-by-step explanation:
The whole reason algebra exists is to solve for a variable. Therefore, the only way to get x by itself or to see what x equals is to subtract 20 from both sides. Doing this will make x be all alone on one side of the equation and to see what x is.
x + 20 = 100
x + 20 -20 = 100 -20
x = 80
The equation for this statement:
2x – 14 = 6
=> 2x = 6 + 14
=> 2x = 20
=> x = 20/2
=> x = 10
