Part A :
So the two sides are equivalent,

Solve for x and get 3.
~~
Answer : x = 3
~~
Part B :
To find JM, simply substitute x for 3 and solve,


~^
Answer : JM = 9
~~
I hope that helps you out!!

First subtract 3 from both sides of the equal sign.
9s + 3 = 57
- 3 -3
9s = 54
Then divide both sides by 9.
9s = 54
/9 /9
s = 6
You can check it by plugging it back into the equation.
9s + 3 = 57
9 * 6 + 3= 57
54 + 3 = 37
57 = 57
Yep! It's correct! :)
Hope that helped. Algebra can be tricky sometimes I know but it's really just balancing equations.

Answer: 2 inches
Explanation: The area formula is length times width (L*w=a). We know that the area is 64in^2 (a=64) and the length is 32in (L=32), so we put those values into the equation and get 32*w=64. We then get w by itself by dividing both sides by 32, and get w=2. so the width is 2 inches.
