5 0

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

5x-3 = 2x+15

<h3>i) move 2x to the left-hand side and change its sign</h3>

5x-2x-3 = 15

<h3>ii) move -3 to the right-hand side and change its sign</h3>

5x-2x = 15+3

<h3>iii) collect like terms</h3>

3x = 15+3

<h3>iv) add the numbers</h3>

3x = 18

<h3>v) divide both sides of the equation by 3</h3>

\frac{3x}{3}  =  \frac{18}{ 3}

x = 6

The figure consists of three objects, a rectangle, a trapezoid, a triangle

Find the area of the rectangle
The rectangle is 16 in long and 9 in wide
a₁ = l × w
a₁ = 16 × 9
a₁ = 144 in²

Find the area of the trapezoid
The base of trapezoid is 31 in and 16 in, and the height is 35 - 20 = 15 in.
a₂ = 1/2 × (a + b) × h
a₂ = 1/2 × (31 + 16) × 15
a₂ = 1/2 × 47 × 15
a₂ = 352.5 in²

Find the area of the triangle
The base of the triangle is 31 in, the height is 20 in
a₃ = 1/2 × b × h
a₃ = 1/2 × 31 × 20
a₃ = 310 in²

Add the area together
a = a₁ + a₂ + a₃
a = 144 + 352.5 + 310
a = 806.5

The answer is 806.5 in²

Write the following equation in slope-intercept form 3x=-2y+4
Lorico [155]
The form is y=mx+b

3x=-2y+4 (add 2y)

3x+2y=4 (subtract 3x)

2y=-3x+4 (divide by 2)

y= -2/3x+2
