Simplify 2(x+3)-5(x-1)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ghella [55]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

-3x + 11

Step-by-step explanation:

The best method to solve this problem is using distributive property.

2(x + 3) = 2x + 6

5(x - 1) = 5x - 5

(2x + 6) - (5x - 5)

Open parenthesis, change the negative sign in the parenthesis to a positive sign because there is a negative sign in front.

2x + 6 - 5x + 5 = -3x + 11

Hope this helps :)

Write an equation that you can use to solve for the height of the triangle (x). Notice that the perimeter is 48 feet.
MArishka [77]
A. 48 = 12 + 20 + x

If you use this equation then you can do 12 + 20 = 32 and then you can do 48 - 32 = 16 so x = 16

Find the mistakes in the equations

Second line on the right side of the equation it should be 2x(-13)

so then 8x - 24 + 7 = -26x
8x - 17 = -26x
then in hers she added the 8 to 26 when she should have subtracted it
it should be -17 = -34x
so 17 = 34x
