Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

We can solve for x by expanding the parentheses and isolating x.

<h3>Solve for x</h3>
  • 3x - 2(2x - 5) = 2(x + 3)-8
  • 3x - 4x + 10 = 2x + 6 - 8
  • -x + 10 = 2x - 2
  • 10 = 3x - 2
  • 12 = 3x
  • x = 4

The value of x is 4.

Alright, we know that the slope intercept form is y=mx+b, where x and y remain variables, m stands for the slope and b stands for the y intercept. 

Because you should already have the slope from the first part (because slope is the same thing as rate of change), you should know that the slope is 60. The y-intercept should be your y value when x=0, and if you set up the equation in terms of years since Elliot has started his business, the year 2000 should be equal to x=0, so the y intercept should be equal to 750.

Now that you know the slope intercept form and what each part of it means, you can plug in what you have to get the final equation, which should be y=60x+750

Solve 3x-4= 7 you may use the flowchart to help you if you wish
laiz [17]

Answer:

x = 3 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

3x - 4 = 7

Add 4 to both sides of the equation

3x - 4 + 4 = 7 + 4

3x = 11

Divide both sides by 3

3x/3 = 11/3

x = 3 2/3

The product of a number and ten is twelve more than the product of the number and five-eighths.
ra1l [238]
Let the unknown number be x.

Given,

10 * x = 12 +  \frac{5}{8}  * x

10x = 12 +  \frac{5x}{8}

10x -  \frac{5x}{8} = 12

\frac{(10x*8)-5x}{8} = 12

80x-5x =12*8

75x = 96

x = \frac{96}{75} = 1.28

Hence, the number is 1.28
