Combining like terms is pretty simple. First, you would identify which terms are similar to what terms. For example, you can't combine two terms that aren't similar like 2x and 3y. It would have to be 2x and 3x to combine. Next, be sure to add/multiply/subtract/divide/etc. the terms. For example, if you had the problem 2x + 4x + 3y, you would combine the "x" terms and the resultant problem would be 6x + 3y. Hope this helped :)
X=60
That’s the answer
What I did to get it
(3x-60)=120
+60. +60
3x =180
————. = 60

X=60

Draw a diagram to illustrate the problem as shown below.
The length of baseboard needed is AB + BC + CD + DE + FE.
Note that 30 in = 30/12 ft = 2.5 ft.
Because of the door opening,
AB + EF = 12 - 2.5 = 9.5 ft
Also,
BC = DE = 10 ft
CD = 12 ft.
The amount of baseboard needed is
AB + BC + CD + DE + FE
= (AB + EF) + BC + CD + DE
= 9.5 + 10 + 12 + 10
= 41.5 ft
Answer:
41.5 feet of baseboard.
