Answer:7x-4= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

4 less than the product of 7 and a number is equal to 3.

The answer is 7x-4= 3 beacuse:

(a.  whenever you have something less than , the first number in the sentence (in this cacse 4) goes after the second number (in this case 7) with a subtraction sign in the middle. (imagine this equation looking like 7-4 <u>for now)</u>.Thats a little trick i use whenever i have to write "something less than something"

(b. okay so now we know it has to be 7 times somethig -4=3, but now we just need to write the "product of 7 and a number" in proper form. in other words, whenever you get somethig times a number, it is always going to be  that number with an x right next to it. so thats why i made it 7x.

(c. "equals 3" is easy because you just turn it into an "=3".

(d. Now put it together. "4 less than the product of 7 and a number is equal to 3." becomes 7x-4=3.

Hope this helps :)) Also brainliest would be appreciated, worked pretty hard on this ! :D

-5x-(-7-4x)=-2(3x-4) true?
qwelly [4]

Answer:

x=1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x-(-7-4x)=-2(3x-4)

-5x+7+4x=-6x+8

-5x+4x+7=-6x+8

-x+7=-6x+8

-x-(-6x)+7=8

-x+6x+7=8

5x+7=8

5x=8-7

5x=1

x=1/5

The area of a rectangular gymnasium is (5x+5x) square feet. If it is 5x feet wide, what is the length, in feet?
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = L x W      gym area is (5x + 5x) ft²      if   W = 5x      Find the L

Area = L x W       divide both sides by W

Area/W  = (L x W) / W

Area/W  =  L  =  Area/W

    L = Area/W

       =  (5x + 5x) / (5x)

       =  5x( 1 + 1) / 5x

       =  5x(2) / 5x                      the 5x's cancel each other  5x/5x = 1

       =   2 ft          I got 2.  I suspect the 12 was a typo and should have been 2
