First you need to distribute the -8
So you would get -8x-8 now distribute the 3 so it would be 3x-6
-8x-8+3x-6=-3+2 is how it should look
Now combine the -8x and 3x cause their like terms and also -8 and -6
-5x-14=-3x+2 now add -3 to both sides
-2x-14=2 and add 14 to both sides
-2x=12 all left to do is divide both by -2
X=-6
For example, a mix number like 1 ½ basically equals to a whole and a half and in this case the whole would be 2 and the half of 2 is 1. hence, the improper fraction of 1 ½ is 3/2.
Answer:
The third side is sqrt(77)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a right triangle we can use the Pythagorean theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse
2^2 + b^2 = 9^2
4+ b^2 = 81
Subtract 4 from each side
b^2 = 81-4
b^2=77
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(b^2) = sqrt(77)
b = sqrt(77)
The third side is sqrt(77)
