Answer: x= -4,-5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
8x - 6 > 12 + 2x
Subtract 2x from each
8x -2x -6 > 12+2x-2x
6x -6 > 12
Add 6 to each side
6x -6+6 > 12+6
6x > 18
Divide by 6
6x/6 > 18/6
x > 3
The only value greater than 3 is 5
X represents the length of a deck. There are three parts to this equations. The 1. width, 2. the length, and 3. the 5 feet shorter. Using the key words, y = the width of a deck (uses the term is which means =) So that takes the width part out of the equation. Then, 5 feet shorter means -5 than a number. That takes away the 5 feet shorter part of the equation. That leaves x to equal the length of the deck.
