Answer:

x = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

5 = 1/2(x) - 3

Add 3 to both sides.

8 = 1/2(x)

Rewrite for clarity.

1/2(x) = 8

x/2 = 8

Multiply both sides by 2.

x = 16.

Proof:

5 = 1/2(x) - 3

Substitute variable.

5 = 1/2(16) - 3

Multiply 1/2 and 16.

5 = 8 - 3

Subtract 3 from 8.

5 = 5

How do you solve for x a=2x+6xz

maksim [4K]

a = 2x + 6xz

a = x(2 + 6z) factored out "x" on right side

a/(2 + 6z) = x divided both sides by (2 + 6z)

Answer: x = $\frac{a}{2 + 6z}$

Answer:

1590.4 square ft

Step-by-step explanation:

r=30 so you need to multiply that by 25% (30*.25=7.5)

30-7.5=22.5

A= pi(r)^2

A=pi*(22.5)^2

A=506.25pi

A=1590.43 or 1590.4 (to the nearest tenth)
