What is the answer x + 2x + 3(x + 4) = 5x - 6

Mathematics
1 answer:
dybincka [34]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x= -18

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 2x + 3(x + 4) = 5x-6

Distribute

x+2x+3x+12 = 5x-6

Combine like terms

6x +12 = 5x-6

Subtract 5x from each side

6x+12 -5x= 5x-6-5x

x+12 = -6

Subtract 12 from each side

x+12-12 = -6-12

x= -18

Use the figure to the right to find the value of PT. T is the midpoint of PQ.
vichka [17]

Answer:

22

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that T is the midpoint of line PQ, segments PT = 5x + 2, and TQ = 7x - 6 that are formed would be equidistant or congruent. PT = TQ.

Therefore:

5x + 2 = 7x - 6

Let's find the value of x

Rearrange the equation, so that the terms having x would be on your left, while those without x would be on your right.

5x - 7x = - 2 - 6

-2x = -8

Divide both sides by -2

x = 4

Plug in the value of x into the expression, 5x + 2, to find PT.

PT = 5(4) + 2 = 22.

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: If Canada(C) is 32,000,000 and America is A and C x 10 = A then 32,000,000 x 10 = A

And to multiply any whole number by 10 you just add a zero to the end so

320,000,000  is the answer which is pronounced "Three hundred twenty million" And there is 7 zeros in the answer
