Answer: x= 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

x−5(x−1)=2x−(2x−3)

x−5(x−1)=2x+−1(2x−3)(Distribute the Negative Sign)

x−5(x−1)=2x+−1(2x)+(−1)(−3)

x−5(x−1)=2x+−2x+3

x+(−5)(x)+(−5)(−1)=2x+−2x+3(Distribute)

x+−5x+5=2x+−2x+3

(x+−5x)+(5)=(2x+−2x)+(3)(Combine Like Terms)

−4x+5=3

Step 2: Subtract 5 from both sides.

−4x+5−5=3−5

−4x=−2

Step 3: Divide both sides by -4.

−4x /−4 = −2 /−4

x = 1/2

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

option D. Neither

Step-by-step explanation:

y-4=7(x-6)

using (5,4):

4-4=7(5-6)

0=7(-1)

0=-7

using (6,5):

5-4=7(6-6)

1=7(0)

1=0

Chloe is painting on a stretched canvas that has an area of 108 square inches. The length of the canvas is 12 inches. The width

Stolb23 [73]

Answer: Width of canvas = 9 inches

Area left for painting after painting the border = 70 square inches.

Explanation :

Since we have given that

Area of painting = 108 square inches

Length of canvas = 12 inches

As we know that

$\text{Area of rectangle} = length\times breadth$

$108=12\times breadth\\\\\frac{108}{12}=breadth\\\\9=breadth$

So, breadth of canvas = 9 inches .

Now, Chloe paints a 1 inch wide blue border on the canvas.

$\text{So, remaining length left for painting after painting the border} = 9-1-1=9-2=7\text{ inches}$

$\text{ Remaining breadth left for painting after painting the border }= 12-1-1=12-2= 10\text{ inches}$

$\text{So , area of remaining portion }= length\times breadth \\\\ \text{ area of remaining portion }=7\times 10\\\\\text{ area of remaining portion }=70 \text{ square inches}$

Hence, remaining area = 70 square inches .
