Answer:
x = - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
7(x + 2) = 2x - 1 ← distribute parenthesis on left side
7x + 14 = 2x - 1 ( subtract 2x from both sides )
5x + 14 = - 1 ( subtract 14 from both sides )
5x = - 15 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = - 3
First, let us restate the given conditions
c is 5 more than variable a ( c = a + 5)
c is also three less than variable a (c = a - 3)
Now, lets look at the answer choices and or given
c = a − 5
c = a + 3
Here, c is 5 less than "a"...so automatically disqualified
a = c + 5
a = 3c − 3
Here, we have to get "C" by itself in both top and bottom equation.
So,
Simplified version :
c = a - 5
Here, c is 5 less than "a"...so automatically disqualified
a = c − 5
a = 3c + 3
Here also, we have to get "C" by itself in both top and bottom equation.
So,
simplified version:
c = a + 5
Here, c is 5 more than "a"...so we continue
c = (a - 3) / 3
Here, c is 3 less than "a" <u>divided by 3</u><u /> . So, this is not correct
c = a + 5
c = a − 3
Here, c is 5 more than "A"
Also, c is 3 less than "a"
Which satisfies the given.
So, our answer is going to be the last one:
c = a + 5
c = a - 3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Area of trapezoid formula:</u>
<u>Substitute the values on the sketch and find the area:</u>
- A = (9 + 13)*10/2 = 110 in²
Pythagorean theorem: a^2 + b^2 = c^2
36^2 + b^2 = 85^2
1296 + b^2 = 7225
b^2 = 7225 - 1296
b^2 = 5926
b = square root of 5929
b = 77 inches long
It’s 4,2 the and the other on PQRS
