Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
-5x + 8 = -2
-5x + 8 - 8 = -2 -8
-5x = -10
-5x/5 = -10/5
-x = -2
x=2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of rectangle = Length × Width
The given rectangle has a length if x meters
The width of the triangle is (x-3) meters
The area of the rectangle is given as 10 square meters.
Area if rectangle = x(x-3) = 10
Multiplying each term in the parentheses,
x^2 -3x = 10
x^2 -3x -10 = 0
This is a quadratic equation
We will look for two numbers such that when they are multiplied, it will give us -10x^2 and when they are added, it will give -3x. It becomes
x^2 + 2x - 5x -10 = 0
x(x+2)-5(x+2) =0
( x + 2)(x-5) = 0
x = -2 or x = 5
The length of the rectangle cannot be negative so the length is 5 meters
Widith = x+3 = 5-3 = 2 meters
Answer:
The LCD is 36.
Step-by-step explanation:
3/4 = 3/4 × 9/9 = 27/36
7/9 = 7/9 × 4/4 = 28/36
Answer:
The third one is a rational number
Step-by-step explanation:
This is because the square root of 36 is 6 and the square root of 225 is 15. So the simplified problem for 3 is 6/15 or 2/5
Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
7x - 9 + 3x = 2x + 18 - x
10x - 9 = x + 18
10x - x = 18 + 9
9x = 27
x = 3
