Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 5 =7x -9

Subtract 3x from each side

3x - 5-3x =7x-3x -9

-5 = 4x-9

Add 9 to each side

-5+9 = 4x-9+9

4 = 4x

Divide each side by 4

4/4 = 4x/4

1=x

Solve the equation y = 200 - 5(x + 37) for x if y = 360.
julsineya [31]

Answer:

x= -35.153846

Step-by-step explanation:

360=200-5(x+37)

360=195(x+37)

360=195x+7215

360-7215=195x+7215-7215

-6855=195x

-6855/195=195x/195

-35.1538461538=x

-35.153846=x

Need help ASAP. Please and thanks!:
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

The answer is x=294 (B)

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember, all interior angles of a hexagon add to 720.

So add all the  given numbers first.

92+100+94+140+x= 720

426+x=720

-426 from both sides

x= 294

I know this is a week later since you posted the question, sorry.

Which is equivalent to the following expression? (2x^2+4xy-y^2)+(x^2+3xy-y^2)
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer C : 3x^2+7xy-2y^2

equivalent to the following expression

(2x^2+4xy-y^2)+(x^2+3xy-y^2)

2x^2+4xy-y^2+x^2+3xy-y^2

Combine like terms

2x^2+x^2+4xy+3xy-y^2-y^2

2x^2 + x^2 is 3x^2

4xy+3xy is 7xy

-y^2-y^2 is -2y^2

So expression becomes

3x^2+7xy-2y^2

Answer  C is correct
