Solve the following equation for x. Show each step.
5x + 2 = 3x + 4(2x - 1)

Answer:

[tex]x=2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

B is the midpoint of AC so AB = BC.

AB + BC = AC

AB + AB = AC

2(AB) = AC

[tex]2\left(3\left(3x-1\right)\right)=5\left(2x+2\right)[/tex]

Expand:

[tex]2\times3\left(3x-1\right)=5(2x+2)[/tex]

[tex]6\left(3x-1\right)=5(2x+2)[/tex]

[tex]6\times3x-6\times1=5\times2x+5\times2[/tex]

[tex]18x-6=10x+10[/tex]

Add 6 to both sides:

[tex]18x-6+6=10x+10+6[/tex]

[tex]18x=10x+16[/tex]

Subtract 10x from both sides:

[tex]18x-10x=10x+16-10x[/tex]

[tex]8x=16[/tex]

Divide both sides by 8:

[tex]\frac{8x}{8}=\frac{16}{8}[/tex]

[tex]x=2[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]x=2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we know that the entire segment adds up to 5(2x+2). In other words:

[tex]AB+BC=5(2x+2)[/tex]

Now, since B is the midpoint of AC, by the definition of midpoint, AB and BC are equivalent. So:

[tex]AB=BC[/tex]

Since we know that, let's substitute BC for AB in the first equation:

[tex]AB+BC=5(2x+2)\\[/tex]

This is equivalent to:

[tex]AB+AB=5(2x+2)[/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex]2AB=5(2x+2)[/tex]

And since we know that AB is 3(3x-1), substitute:

[tex]2(3(3x-1))=5(2x+2)[/tex]

Now, solve for x.

Distribute the left side:

[tex]6(3x-1)=5(2x+2)[/tex]

Distribute both sides:

[tex]18x-6=10x+10[/tex]

Add 6 to both sides:

[tex]18x=10x+16[/tex]

Subtract 10x from both sides:

[tex]8x=16[/tex]

Divide both sides by 8:

[tex]x=2[/tex]

So, the value of x is 2.

And we're done!

Notes:

You didn't particularly state what you need to find. If you want to length of AB or BC, it would be:

[tex]AB=BC=3(3(2)-1)=15[/tex]

And the entire length AC is:

[tex]AC=2(15)=30[/tex]

Answer: 11

Step-by-step explanation: replace x for 3 and solve.

Well, if 1 gallon of gas = 1 hour then

2 hours would be 2 gallons so only 11 gallons of gas would be left in the tank and

13 hours would be 13 gallons, so 0 gallons of gas would be left in the tank

Answer:

1 12th (1 over 12)

Step-by-step explanation:

If she had a whole cake it would be 1 6th (1 over 6) of the cake. To get the answer for this do fraction for the amount of food then multiply that by 1 as the numerator and the number of people as the denominator (1 over the # of people). Then the fraction you get as your answer from multiplying that is the fraction or answer to your question. Note this only works with these types of questions. I really hope this helps.

Answer:

E) |g-540|

Step-by-step explanation:

E) |g-540|

If it weighed a bit over, say 545, you would get |545-540|=|5|=5

If it weight a little under, say 535, you would get |535-540|=|-5|=5

Either way, it tells you how far away from 540 the package is in grams from the desired weight.

Answer:

d = [tex]2\sqrt{29}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]d= \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}\\d= \sqrt{(0-4)^2+(0-10)^2}\\d= \sqrt{(-4)^2+(-10)^2}\\d= \sqrt{16+100}\\d= \sqrt{116}\\d=2 \sqrt{29}[/tex]

The angle "b" and the angle "d" are both the same angle measure. In other words, they are opposite angles that share the black dot in the middle. Angle "a" and angle "c" are both opposite angles which make them the same. They can also be called congruent angles. Even if they are facing a different direction, they are the same.

Therefore, the answer is 130 degrees

Best of Luck!

answer:

130 degrees

explanation:

the angles "a" & "c" are opposite (also called congruent) so they are the same.

Answer:

She will need 1/6 of a cup of sugar to make 1/4 of the recipe.

Step-by-step explanation:

Write and solve an equation of ratios. On the left side we have the ratio of the fraction of the recipe and on the right that of the amount of sugar in each case:

1 recipe      2/3 cup

------------- = -------------

1/4 recipe         x

Cross multiplying gives us:

1x = (1/4)(2/3), or

x =2/12 or 1/6

She will need 1/6 of a up of sugar to make 1/4 of the recipe.

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\tt 11.6 \ feet}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a square can be found using the following formula.

[tex]A=s^2[/tex]

We know the area of the patio is 135 square feet. Substitute 135 ft² in for A.

[tex]135 \ ft^2=s^2[/tex]

We want to find the side length. We must isolate the variable, [tex]s[/tex]. on one side of the equation.

s is being squared. The inverse of a square is a square root. Take the square root of both sides of the equation.

[tex]\sqrt{135 \ ft^2} =\sqrt{s^2}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{135 \ ft^2} =s[/tex]

[tex]11.61895 \ ft =s[/tex]

Round to the nearest tenth. The 1 in the hundredth place tells us to leave the 6 in the tenth place.

[tex]11.6 \ ft \approx s[/tex]

Each side of the patio is about 11.6 feet.

Answer -11r - 31

First you have to multiply the 4 to the numbers on parenthesis and also the 5 to the numbers of parenthesis.

Answer:

16m + 12m - 8a + 32

Step-by-step explanation:

16m + 4(3m) - 4(2a) + 32. distribute the number (4) among the numbers inside of the parenthesis

16m + 12m -8a + 32. multiply

Answer:

-20

Step-by-step explanation:

a2 + ( b-c)

rewrite the equation

2 * a + ( b - c )

a = -8

b = 17

c = 21

substitute in the given values

(-8) 2 + ( (17) - (21) )

simplify and solve

-16 + ( 17-21)

= -16 +  (-4)

= -16 -4

=-20
