Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve:
Distribute 5 among everything inside the first parentheses. You'll get 5x - 15.
Next distribute -2 among everything in the second parentheses. You'll get
-2x - 2.
<u>All together: 5x - </u><u>15</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u>2x </u><u>-</u><u> </u><u>2</u><u> </u><u>= 4</u>
Now combine like terms:
5x - 2x = 3x and -15 - 2 = - 17
<u>All</u><u> </u><u>together</u><u>: 3x -</u><u> </u><u>17 = 4</u>
Add 17 on both sides to get 21, and then divide both sides by 3. Answer is x = 7.
________________________________
Last, don't forget to check your work.
You can plug in 7 for x to get:
5(7 - 3) = 20
5 × 7 = 35
5 × -3 = -15
35 - 15 = 20
-2(7 + 1) = -16
-2 × 7 = -14
-2 × 1 = - 2
-14 -2 = -16
<u>20 - 16 = 4</u>
⬆⬆⬆Therefore this is correct.

The answer to this problem is simple all you have to do is pemdas and you get the answer 0.6
M² - 12m + 20
m² ⇒ m * m
20 ⇒ - 10 * -2
(m - 10)(m - 2)
m(m - 2) - 10(m-2)
m² - 2m - 10m + 20
m² - 12m + 20
m - 10 = 0
m = 10
m - 2 = 0
m = 2
The answer is
2(pi)/3
Because 4(pi)-/5 minus 2(pi)-/5 is 2(pi)-/5
After that you cancel -/5 from the numerator and denominator to get 2(pi)/3
