Combine like terms:
subtract x from both sides to get
2x+5=14
subtract 5
2x=9
isolate x:
divide 2 from both sides to isolate x
x=9/2
that's your final answer. unless your teacher wants you to put it in decimal form in which all you do is divide 9÷2.
I will show you how to do the first one.....we are finding the GCF...the largest number that goes into each number (same for variables)
1.) 20yx , 80x³ ( factor each number and variable)
20 = 2, 4, 5, 10, 20
y = y
x = x
80 = 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 40, 80
x³ = x, x, x
what is the largest number that 20 and 80 have in common? 20...
how about the variables? x
so, the Greatest Common Factor (GCF is 20x)
Answer:
For every 15 students scoring in the 60's there were 9 students scoring in the 70's.
Step-by-step explanation:
Your first step would be to rewrite the numbers into an easier to understand form like fractions, 45/3 and 27/3. Then you divide both numbers by 3, so you get comparable numbers. 45/3= 15, 27/3=9.
1 and 5 are corresponding angles, so both have the same measure:
m 1 = m 5
m 1 = 65º
Answer: option D. 65º.
I hope this helps. =)
X is the number
sum means add
sum of half a number and 4 means
(x/2)+4
result is -16
(x/2)+4=-16
minus 4 both sides
x/2=-20
times 2 both sides
x=-40
the number is -40
