Slove 3/4(5x-3)+8=17. Show your work​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Vlada [557]3 years ago
3 0
So first you would simplify 3/4(5x-3) to 3(5x-3)/4
So it would be 3(5x-3)/4+8=17
2. Subtract 8 from both sides
3(5x-3)/4=17-8
3. Then simplify 17-8 to 9
3(5x-3)/4=9
4. Multiply both sides by 4
3(5x-3)=9x4
5. Simplify 9x4 to 36
3(5x-3)=36
6. Divide both sides by 3
5x-3=36/3
Simplify 36/3 to 12
5x-3=12
8. Add 3 to both sides
5x=12+3
9. Simplify 12+3 to 15
5x=15
10. Divide both sides by 5
X=15/5
Simplify 15/5 to 3
X=3
So your answer is x=3

nordsb [41]

Answer:

The area of the cube is 486 inches^2

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are tasked with calculating the area of cube with side 9 inch.

Mathematically, the area can be calculated using the formula A = 6s^2

Now, what we need to do is to substitute 9 inches for s

Thus, A = 6 * 9^2

A = 6 * 81

A = 486 inches^2

Solve equation for 5x-14=8x+4
creativ13 [48]
My answer-

Simplifying 5x + -14 = 8x + 4
 
Reorder the terms: -14 + 5x = 8x + 4 Reorder the terms: -14 + 5x = 4 + 8x
 
Solving -14 + 5x = 4 + 8x Solving for variable 'x'.


Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-8x' to each side of the equation. -14 + 5x + -8x = 4 + 8x + -8x

Combine like terms: 5x + -8x = -3x -14 + -3x = 4 + 8x + -8x

Combine like terms: 8x + -8x = 0 -14 + -3x = 4 + 0 -14 + -3x = 4 Add '14' to

 each side of the equation. -14 + 14 + -3x = 4 + 14

Combine like terms: -14 + 14 = 0 0 + -3x = 4 + 14 -3x = 4 + 14

 Combine like terms: 4 + 14 = 18 -3x = 18 <span>

Divide each side by '-3'. x = -6

Simplifying x = -6
