Answer: -3

Concept:

Here, we need to understand the idea of evaluation.  

When encountering questions that gave you an expression with variables, then stated: "If x = a, y = b, z = c" (a, b, c are all constants), this means you should substitute the value given for each variable back to the expression.

Solve:

<u>Given information</u>

x= -3

<u>Given expression</u>

5x - 4 [7 + (2x - 4)]

<u>Substitute x value into the expression</u>

=5(-3) - 4 [7 + (2(-3) - 4)]

<u>Simplify by multiplication</u>

=-15 - 4 [7 + (-6 - 4)]

<u>Simplify value in parentheses</u>

=-15 - 4 [7 + (-10)]

<u>Simplify value in bracket</u>

=-15 - 4 [-3]

<u>Simplify by multiplication</u>

=-15 - (-12)

=-15 + 12

=\boxed{-3}

Hope this helps!! :)

Please let me know if you have any questions

5×(-3)-4{7+[2×(-3)-4]}
-15-4[7+(-6-4)]
=-15-4[7+(-10)]
=-15-4(7-10)
=-15-4×(-3)
=-15+12
=-3

Hope my answer helped u :)

PLEASEEEEEEE HELPPPPP
coldgirl [10]

If their perimeters are equal, we can add up all the side lengths of each triangle, and set the perimeters equal to each other to find the value of x that satisfies the equation:

x - 2 + x + 3x + 1 = 2x - 5 + x + 4 + 6x - 7

Combine like terms:

5x - 1 = 9x - 8

And finally, solve for x:

7 = 4x

x = \frac{7}{4}

Therefore, x is equal to \frac{7}{4}.

<em>Hope this helps! :)</em>

Zack has a old car. He wants to sell it for 60% off the current price. The market price is $500. How much money would he receive
Snowcat [4.5K]
Zack would receive $200. You have to make 60% as a decimal= 0.60 then multiply $500*0.60= $300 then you subtract $500-$300=$200
(Hope this works!!)
