Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Equation</u>
17 - (3x + 5) = 3x - 6
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Distribute negative: 17 - 3x - 5 = 3x - 6
- Add 3x on both sides: 17 - 5 = 6x - 6
- Combine like terms: 12 = 6x - 6
- Isolate <em>x</em> term: 18 = 6x
- Isolate <em>x</em>: 3 = x
- Rewrite: x = 3
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: 17 - (3(3) + 5) = 3(3) - 6
- Multiply: 17 - (9 + 5) = 9 - 6
- Add: 17 - 14 = 9 - 6
- Subtract: 3 = 3
Here we see that 3 does indeed equal 3.
∴ x = 3 is the solution to the equation.
Answer:
x = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Complementary means they add up to 90°
So add the angles up and set them equal to 90°
3x - 4 + 5x + 6 = 90
ADD the x's
8x - 4 + 6 = 90
COMBINE the -4 and 6
8x +2 = 90
SUBTRACT 2 from both sides.
8x = 88
DIVIDE by 8 on both sides.
8x/8 = 88/8
x = 11
Answer:
3 to the 1000th power
Step-by-step explanation:
If you have two numbers, one the power of the other, A the power of B it means you have to multiply A by itself B times( in this case B is 1000)
