Let 3x + 9 = 5x – 3. What is the value of 4x ?

24

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 9 = 5x - 3

9 = 2x - 3

12 = 2x

x = 6

6 * 4  =24

4x = 24

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

you can't solve x because it is 2 linear equation and you only have one equation
