Question

Help me out with this one please

Answer 1

Answer:

5) x = -1

6) x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

5) 5 + 2x + 6 = x + 10

   2x + 11 = x + 10

   2x + 1 = x

   1 = -x

   -1 = x

6) (9x + 7) + (-3x + 20) = 39

    6x + 27 = 39

    6x = 12

     x = 2

Answer 2

Answer:

For question 5, x= -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Segment Addition Postulate = ab+bc=ac

For Question 5,

(a)     +    (b)  = (c)  

5+2x  +   6    = x+10

5+2x+6=x+10

To solve that,

5+2x+6=x+10

Add 5+6

11+2x=x+10

Subtract 11 from both sides

2x= x-1

x-1=2x
