Answer:
x=34
Step-by-step explanation:
6 - ( x-7) ^ 1/3 = 3
Subtract 6 from each side
6-6 - ( x-7) ^ 1/3 = 3-6
- ( x-7) ^ 1/3 = -3
Divide each side by a negative
( x-7) ^ 1/3 = 3
Cube each side
( x-7) ^ 1/3 ^3 = (3)^3
x-7 = 27
Add 7 to each side
x-7+7 = 27+7
x = 34
Check
6 - ( 34-7) ^ 1/3 = 3
6 - (27^1/3 = 3
6 -3 =3
3=3
Good solution
It can't be simplified, it is already in its lowest term
So we are given the expression:
÷ 
When we divide fractions, we must flip the second term and change the sign to multiplication:

And then we multiply across:

Then we can break apart all of the like variables for simplification:

When we simplify variables through division, we subtract the exponent of the numerator from the exponent of the denominator. So we then have:



So then we multiply all of these simplified parts together:

So now we know that the simplified form of the initial expression is:
.
Let x be the initial width, then the initial length is x+20.
<span>If Elise decreases this length by 8 feet, she will get the new length x+20-8=x+12.
</span>
If Elise increases the width by 10 feet, <span>she will get the new width x+10.
</span><span>
</span><span>The new perimeter will be x+12+x+12+x+10+x+10=4x+44=172, 4x=172-44, 4x=128, x=128÷4, x=32.
</span><span>
</span><span>The initial width is 32 ft and the initial length is 32+20=52 ft.
</span><span>
</span><span>The new width will be 32+10=42 ft, the new length will be 32+12=44 ft.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5 + x - 12 = x- 7 (Add the 5 and -12 to simplify)
x - 7 = x - 7 (notice its the same on both sides of equal sign. Add 7 to both sides)
x = x
solution is all real numbers
Part B
5 - 4 - 12 = -4 - 7
-11 = -11
5 + 0 - 12 = 0 - 7
-7 = -7
5 + 5 - 12 = 5 - 7
-2 = -2
