Answer:
x=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
Place like terms on the same side.
Keep in mind when a term is moved from its original position, it changes sign.
x+x=-3-3
2x=-6
x=-3
1) 4*3 - 9
2) 15 - 12
3) 4 - 1
4) 54 + 1 - 52
5) 9*3+2-26

Is there supposed to be a picture??
But to answer ur question when ur referring to x your referring to 1 hope this helps
Let x be equal to the number of drinks Yasmine consumed.
Jose had 2 times that drink so his number of consumed drink would be represented by 2x.
Sally had 3 fewer drink than Jose so her number of consumed drinks would be represented by 2x-3.
Altogether, the three of them consumed 72 drinks so your equation would be:
x+2x+(2x-3)=72
add like terms together:
5x-3=72
have the term with x be alone on one side of the equation, in this case by adding three to both sides:
5x=75
now divide both sides by five for the value of x and your answer is.....
x=15
