What is -(x + 4) - 3x = x in Distributive property?

Mathematics

Answer:

x = -4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Original equation: -(x+4)-3x=x

Remember distributive property allows us to get rid of the parenthesis by bringing a multiplication from outside to inside a parenthesis.

-(x+4) = -x-4

= -x-4-3x=x

Now we combine like terms in this case we have (-x) and (-3x)

= -4x-4=x

Subtract x from both sides

= -4x-4=x

  -x      -x

----------------

 -5x-4=0

Add 4 to both sides

-5x-4=0

    +4 +4

---------------

-5x=4

Our final step is to divide both sides by -5

-5x=4

----  ----

-5    -5

x = -4/5

Hope this helps!!!

Find the volume. Help asap. Please.
alexgriva [62]

Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the diameter:

Diameter = √(19.3^2 - 9.5^2)

Diameter = √(372.49 - 90.25)

Diameter = √282.24

Diameter = 16.8 m

Volume of a cylinder = PI x r^2 x h

r = 1/2 diameter = 16.8 /2 = 8.4

h = 9.5 m

Volume = PI x 8.4^2 x 9.5

= PI x 70.56 x 9.5

= PI x 670.32

In terms of PI volume = 670.32PI

As a decimal:

670.32 x 3.14 = 2104.8048 = 2100m^3 ( rounded to the nearest hundred)

Which of the following equations is equivalent to 2 + x + 2x = 14? A 4X E 14 B 3x = 12 C 3x = 16 D 1x = 12​
Alex_Xolod [135]

Step-by-step explanation:

2 + x + 2x = 14

3x + 2 = 14 (combine like terms)

3x = 12 (subtract 2 from both sides)

Hence the answer is 3x = 12. (B)
