Answer:
7x-5 = 9
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number
7x-5 = 9
Add 5 to each side
7x-5+5 = 9+5
Divide each side by 7
7x = 14
7x/7 = 14/7
x=2
Answer:
100C=m
Step-by-step explanation:
If 250 copies are made in 2.5 minutes, you get the equation:
250c=2.5m
divide by 2.5 on both sides and you get:
100c=m
So in m minutes, 100c copies are made.
Draw the graph for each side, member, of the equation and see where the curves cross, are equal. The x values of these points, are the solutions to the equation.
1. A. y and 1.2y are like terms. c they both contain the same term (y) and can therefore be combined.
2. B. 12x+11 (you have to combine the like terms)
3. 15y+18-4
C. 15y+14 (you must distribute the 3 to inside the parentheses, so 3×5y and 3×6)
4. 9(9-3p) (you have to find a common factor between the terms, in this case 9, and you place it on the outside of the parentheses, while dividing that factor from those terms, which are placed in parentheses.
