Three times the difference of a number and two is equal to the sum of the number and twelve.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x=-21

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference of a number and 3 is x - 3

The sum of the number and 5 is x + 5  

Twice the difference of a number and 3 is therefore 2(x - 3)  

Three times the sum of the number and 5 is therefore 3(x + 5)  

These last two terms are equal. In equation form this is:  

2(x - 3) = 3(x + 5)

2x - 6 = 3x + 15  

Get rid of the 3x on the right side by subtracting 3x from both sides and you have:  

-x - 6 = 15  

Get rid of the -6 on the left side by adding 6 to both sides to get:  

-x = 21  

You are trying to solve for +x. To change the left side of this equation to +x multiply

both sides by -1 and you change the equation to:  

x = -21

Hope this helps you to understand the problem.

write 120 as product of powers of its prime factors.​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]120=2^3 \times 3 \times 5[/tex]

Answer:

2³ × 3 × 5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the prime factors, first divide 120 by 2 until finished , then 3 and so on

120 ÷ 2 = 60

60 ÷ 2 = 30

30 ÷ 2 = 15

15 ÷ 3 = 5

5 ÷ 5 = 1 ← finish when 1 is obtained

Then

120 = 2× 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 = 2³ × 3 × 5

30 POINTS, 2 QUESTIONS!!!

Find the value of x and KL if K is between J and L.

1. JK = 6 x , KL = 3 x , and JL = 27
2. JK = 2 x , KL = x + 2, and JL = 5 x – 10

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) JK + KL = JL

6x + 3x = 27

       9x = 27

          x = 27/9

         x = 3

2) JL = JK + KL  

5x - 10 = 2x + x + 2           {Combine like terms}

5x - 10 = 3x + 2

Add 10 to both sides

5x = 3x + 2 + 10

5x = 3x + 12

Subtract 3x from both sides

5x - 3x = 12

2x = 12

Divide both sides by 2

x = 12/2

Answer:

x=6

AD=x+18

=6+18

=24 (the final answer)

Answer:

x = 6

AD = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of x and AD

We know that the opposite sides of parallelogram are equal

so

AD = BC

3x + 6 = x + 18

3x - x = 18 - 6

2x = 12

x = 12/2

x = 6

now we need to find AD

AD =3x + 6

instead of x we have to put 6

AD =  3 (6) +6

     = 18 +6

     = 24

AD = 24

A and Z are both between points M and N such that MZ=AN and A is between M and Z. Given: MA=5x AZ=3x-2 AN=6(2x-1) find MN

Answers

Answer:

MN = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

M___A___Z___N

MZ =MA+AZ

MZ = 5x + 3x -2 = 8x - 2

MZ = AN

8x - 2 = 6(2x-1)

8x - 2 = 12x - 6

12x - 8x = 6 -2

4x = 4

x =4/4

x =1

MA= 5x = 5(1) = 5

AZ = 3x-2 = 3(1) - 2 = 3 -2= 1

MZ = 8x -2 = 8(1)-2= 8-2=6

AN = 12x - 6 = 12(1)-6 = 12 - 6 = 6

MN = MA + AN = 5 + 6 = 11

Three consecutive integers sum to 6. What is the least of these integers?

Answers

Answer:

The least of the three integers is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Let x be equal to the least of these integers.

Let x+1 and x+2 be the next consecutive integers.

We're given that these integers have a sum os 6.

We can use these to construct an equation:

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

Combine like terms:

[tex]x+x+1+x+2=6\\x+x+x+1+2=6\\3x+3=6\\3x=3\\x=1[/tex]

Therefore, the least of these integers is 1.

The other two integers would be 2 and 3.
