Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Distribute</em>

3 (−4) = 2 (−2+1)

3 − 12 = 2 (-2x +1)

<em>Distrubute again</em>

3x - 12 = -4x + 2

<em>Add twelve to both sides of the equation</em>

<em>Simpfly</em>

3x = -4x + 14

<em>Add 4x to both sides of the equation</em>

<em>simpfly</em>

7x = 14

<em>Divide both sides of the equation by the same term</em>

<em>Simpfly</em>

x = 2

5.<br> A number is squared, then multiplied by 6. The result is 54. What was the number?<br> Answer:
madam [21]

Answer:

± 3

Step-by-step explanation:

let n be the number then the number squared is n² , so

6n² = 54 ( divide both sides by 6 )

n² = 9 ( take the square root of both sides )

n = ± \sqrt{9} = ± 3

That is the number is 3 or - 3

The lengths of the sides of a triangle are in the extended ratio 4:7:10. The perimeter of the triangle is 105 cm. What are the l
AlekseyPX
<h3>Answer:   20 cm, 35 cm, and 50 cm</h3>

=========================================================

Explanation:

The sides are in the ratio 4:7:10

This scales up to 4x:7x:10x showing that the sides are 4x, 7x and 10x. The variable x is some positive real number.

Add up the sides and set this equal to the given perimeter 105. Solve for x.

4x+7x+10x = 105

21x = 105

x = 105/21

x = 5

This value is then plugged into each side

  • 4x = 4*5 = 20
  • 7x = 7*5 = 35
  • 10x = 10*5 = 50

The triangle has sides of 20 cm, 35 cm, and 50 cm.

Note how the ratio 20:35:50 reduces to 4:7:10 after dividing all three parts by the GCF 5. Also, we can see that 20+35+50 = 105 to fully confirm our answer.
