(x + 6)/2 - (x - 8)/3 = 5
Multiply each term by 6:-
3(x + 6) - 2(x - 8) = 30
3x + 18 - 2x + 16 = 30
3x - 2x = 30 -18 - 16
x = 30 - 34
x = -4 (answer)

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1.5.80 miles
2.9.80ft
3.56 inches
4.5.20 units
5. 13 units
6.5.40 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
⇒These questions are on the Pythagorean relationship
⇒General expression is ;
a²+b²=c² where a and b are values for the legs and c is the hypotenuse
1. Isaiah waked 3 miles north and 5 miles east.
Finding the distance from starting point we apply the equation;
a²+b²=c² where a=5 miles and b=3miles
5²+3²=c²
25+9=c²
34=c²
c=√34 = 5.80 miles
2.The ladder is leaning against the wall to form the hypotenuse side of 10 ft.The distance from the base to the ladder forms side a= 2ft. The question requires you to calculate the height b.
a²+b²=c²
2²+b²=10²
4+b²=100
b²=100-4
b=√96
b=9.80 ft
3. The television has a diagonal of 70 inches to represent side c and a height of 42 inches to represent the side a. The question requires you to find the width of the television which represents the side b
a²+ b²=c²
42²+b²=70²
b²=70²-42²
b=√3136
c=56 inches
4. An equilateral triangle is one that has all its sides and angles equal. Here you have to introduce a perpendicular line from the apex point of the triangle to the base and get the distance a.The using the hypotenuse and the distance a, you can find the height/b.
c= 6 units and a=6/2= 3 units
a²+b²=c² 3²+ b²= 6²
9+b²=36
b²=36-9
b=√27 =5.20 units
5.In this question, you are given the height and the width of the right triangle thus apply the relationship as;
a²+b²=c²..........where a=5 and b=12
5²+12²=c²
25+144=c²⇒⇒⇒c=√169 =13 units
6. In this question, the height of the plant represents side b and the distance of the base from where the string is tied is side b.You are to find the length of the string which represents the hypotenuse side.
a²+b²=c²
5²+2²=c²
25+4=c²
29=c²
√29=c
c=5.40 ft
There are 13 protons because the atomic number (the number in the top left corner) represents the number of protons. Then, to find the number of neutrons, you take the number of protons and subtract it from the atomic mass (the number on the bottom) when it is rounded. The number of electrons is the same as the protons when the atom is neutral
