A) 7x+5 = 2x-35
-2x -2x
5x + 5 = -35
-5 -5
5x = -40
x = -8
b) x/3 - 7 = -5
+7 +7
x/3 = 2 .. Multiple by 3 both sides
x = 6
c) 4x+5 = 4x+1
-4x -4x
1 = 5 , This is NOT true ..

Help please!! i don’t understand this one!

12345 [234]

Answer:

C, D

Step-by-step explanation:

This equation can be solved any of several ways. One that doesn't require much thought is using the quadratic formula.

For ax² +bx +c = 0, the solutions are ...

$x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

In the given equation, a=2, b=11, c=5, so this becomes ...

$x=\dfrac{-11\pm\sqrt{11^2-4\cdot2\cdot5}}{2\cdot2}=\dfrac{-11\pm\sqrt{81}}{4}\\\\x=\dfrac{-11\pm9}{4}=\left\{-\dfrac{20}{4},-\dfrac{2}{4}\right\}=\{-5,-\frac{1}{2}\}$

The solutions are ...

C. x = -5

D. x = -1/2

My personal favorite is using a graphing calculator. The solutions are the x-intercepts of the expression on the left. That is, where its value is zero, as the equation says.
