U would do this because no matter the order, the answer will be the same
X + (x + 2) + ( x + 4) + (x + 6)
----------------------------------- = 15
4
4x + 12
--------- = 15
4
Multiply by 4 on both sides
4x + 12 = 60
subtract 12 from both sides
4x = 48
divide by 4 on each side
x = 12
x + 2 = 14
x + 4 = 16
x + 6 = 18
Answer:
37.8
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up a proportion using the values given in the diagram of similar triangles.
31.5/15 = x/18
Cross-multiply.
31.5(18) = 15x
Multiply.
567 = 15x
Divide both sides by 15.
37.8 = x
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
What variable are you solving for?
recall that when it comes to absolute value expressions, once we remove the bars, it turns always to positive, so | -5 |, the bars go poof, and tada!! 5.
