For this question, we can assume that RS + ST = RT. So now, we just have to plug in the expressions for these lengths, and solve the equation.
(3x+1) + (2x-2) = 64
Because we are only dealing with one operation, the parentheses aren't necessary.
3x + 1 + 2x - 2 = 64
Next, we should combine like terms on the left side of the equation. We know that 3x + 2x = 5x, and that 1 - 2 = -1.
5x - 1 = 64
The goal of an equation is to get the variable alone. To do this, we have to get rid of the -1 on the left side of the equation. So, we are going to add 1 to both sides of the equation, to cancel out the -1 on the left side.
5x = 65
Finally, we are going to divide both sides by 5, as this is the inverse operation of multiplication, which is how the 5 and the x are connected.
x = 13
Therefore, the value of x is 13.
I think it should also be 16 but I’m not pretty sure so hopefully you get it right !
9 2/3 total ounces is a total split up among 6 fruits.
So we need to divide 9 2/3 among the 6 fruits.
= 9 2/3 divide 6
= change 9 2 / 3 in improper fraction
= 9*3 + 2/3
= 29/3 divided by 6/1
= 29/3 x 1/6
= 29/18, change that to mixed fractions.
The answer is 1 11/18 ounces of each fruit.
if the question is (x + 5)^2, the product is x^2 + 10x + 25.
Here’s your answer lemme know if it’s not clear
