What is the solution to 3x-10x+5=5x+17

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 10x + 5 = 5x + 17 (collect like terms)

-7x + 5 = 5x + 17 (subtract 5x on both sides)

-12x + 5 = 17 ( subtract 5 on each side)

-12x = 12 ( divide by -12 on each side)

x = -1

x = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the like terms.

Add 7x to both sides.

Subtract 17 from both sides.

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

70.30
