5x -3 = 12
5x -3 + 3 = 12 + 3 [Add 3 to each side]
5x + 0 = 15 [Evaluate]
5x/5 = 15/5 [Divide each side by 5]
1x = 3 [Evaluate]
The answer I get is the number 3.
Answer:
35triangles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Total distinct points = 7
If we are to form triangles using the dots,
Total points in a triangle = 3
Using the combination rule;
number of triangles formed = 7C3
7C3 = 7!/(7-3)!3!
7C3 = 7!/4!3!
7C3 = 7*6*5*4!/4!3!
7C3 = 7*6*5/6
7C3 = 7*5
7C3 = 35
Hence the amount of triangles that can be formed is 35triangles
I think you mean x^2 - 7x + 8
This is a basic factoring problem:
What two numbers multiply to make 8 and add to make -7?
There are no two numbers that work!
Therefore, it is prime
The answer is 15. 37 plus 18 equals to 55 and 22 plus 18 equals to 40. 55 minus 40 equals to 15.
