Answer:

x = (5 + 3a)/(2a - b)

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

  • Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>

a(2x - 3) = bx + 5

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Distribute <em>a</em>:                              2xa - 3a = bx + 5
  2. Add 3a on both sides:             2xa = bx + 5 + 3a
  3. Subtract bx on both sides:      2xa - bx = 5 + 3a
  4. Factor out <em>x</em>:                             x(2a - b) = 5 + 3a
  5. Isolate <em>x</em>:                                   x = (5 + 3a)/(2a - b)

Answer:

x=(3a+5)/(2a-b)

Step-by-step explanation:

We spread the a to the 2x and -3 first,

2ax -3a= bx+5 5ax

By adding 3a, we pass the -3a over

2ax=bx+5+3aa bx+5+3aa

We'll pass the bx over the bx, then

2ax-bx=5+3aa-bx=5

Now we will party like this on the left side,

5+3a) x(2a-b)=5+3a)

Everything we have to do to find x is to separate both sides by (2a-b)

x=(3a+5)/=(3a+5)/ (2a-b)

Which statements about a square are always true?
arlik [135]

Answer:

All statements are true.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a square, we have

all sides equal

all angles equal to 90 degrees

diagonals always bisect each other and at right angles.

Only square is the quadrilateral which satisfies all the above properties.

A parallelogram has diagonals which do not cut at right angles.

A rhombus has all sides equal but not all angles. Neither diagonals are equal in a rhombus.

How can I solve -4x+y=29
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

What variable are you solving for?

-4x+y=29

y=29-(-4x)

y=29+4x

y=4x+29

----------------

-4x=29-y

-4x=-y+29

x=1/4y+29/-4

y=1/4y-29/4

Find the area of the rhombus.<br> A=<br> square units
Olin [163]
The answer should be 24 square units.

5 is the hypotenuse and the one we need is the base and the height. They gave us the height, which was 6 in total but 3 for the triangle. But we needed to find the base.

In order to do that, we need to use the Pythagorean Theorem.

a^2+b^2=c^2

3^2+b^2=5^2

9+b^2=25

Subtract 9 from both sides

b^2=16

Then square root both sides.

b=4.

Now that we have the base, you can then find the area of the triangle.

BH/2
4*3/2
12/2
6

So one triangle equals to 6. Then multiply that by 4 to find the area of the rhombus. Which would be 24 square units.
