2x + 6 + 9x = 39 11x + 6 = 39 11x = 39 - 6 11x = 33 x = 3
(2x-1) + (2x+1) + (2x+3) = 1172x - 1 + 2x + 1 + 2x + 3 = 1176x + 3 = 1176x = 114x = 19The numbers are 37, 39, and 41.
Your problem is 2x = 39. To figure out what x is, you first have to get rid of the 2 that is attached to the x. To get get rid of it, you have to do the opposite. In this case, that means you have to divide both sides by two. When I put parathesis around it, that means I'm dividing the whole thing by two. (2x = 39) / 2 = 19.5 So that means x=19.5
Their ages: x+5+x = 39 => 2x+5 = 39 => 2x = 39-5 => 2x = 34 => x = 17Therefore: Mary is 17+5 = 22 years and Bob is 17 years
it is 41x because you add the two numbers together and then add x
The closest to a solution you can come is:2x + y = 39
If I understand the question correctly: 2x=39 then x=39/2 or x=19.5
x2 + 2x - 38 = 0 ∴ x2 + 2x + 1 = 39 ∴ (x + 1)2 = 39 ∴ x + 1 = ±√39 ∴ x = -1 ±√39
2x + 24 = 9x - 39= 2x + 63 = 9x= 63 = 7x= x = 9
2x + 6 + 9x = 39 11x + 6 = 39 11x = 39 - 6 11x = 33 x = 3
2x+3=9 x
8x+39 = 2x-15 6x = -54 x = -9
This is 41x
4x-39 = 2x+3, 4x-2x = 42 x=21
This is 41x
Let the length of a leg be x. There are three sides: the base which is 11, and the legs, which are both x: 11 + x + x = 39 2x+11 = 39 2x = 39-11 2x = 28 x = 28/2 x = 14 The length of one leg is 14 units.
There can be no greatest common denominator. Suppose x is the greatest common denominator. That requires that 39 divides x, 26 divides x and x is the greatest such number. But 39 will divide 2x and 26 will divide 2x and 2x is greater than x. So x could not have been a GCD.
