Notice how on both sides of the equation there is one coefficient (number being multiplied by x) and a constant (just a plain number). You want all constants to be on one side and all coefficients on the other. He’s how do to that:
2x+14=-21-5
I am choosing that all constants will be on the right side, so I will do the inverse operation of any constant on the left side to remove it. Here, a constant on the left side is 14. I will subtract 14 from both sides of the equation. Positive 14 minus 14 is zero, so it cancels out and removes it.
2x+14-14 = -21-5x
2x = -35-5x
See how the 14 is now gone? The equation looks much simpler now. Okay next, you can see that there is a coefficient on the “constant side” that I’ve chosen, so I am going to remove that. Negative 5 plus positive 5 equals zero. Do this on both sides of the equation.
2x+5x = -35-5x+5x
7x = -35
Now the equation is just two numbers. All that is left to do is divide by the last coefficient, 7, in this case.
7x/7 = -35/7
x = -5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

solve for x

2x+14=-21-5

2x+14=-26

subtract 14 from both sides

2x+(14-14)=-14-26

2x=-14-26

2x=-40

divide both sides of 2x = -40 by 2

\frac{2x}{2} =\frac{-40}{2}

2/2=1

x=\frac{-40}{2}

x= -20

For which values of x will the rational expression below be equal to zero? <br><br> (X-1)(x+5)/(x-5)
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

1 and -5

Step-by-step explanation:

0 divided by anything is 0

the numerator can equal zero if one factor =0

so

x-1=0

or

x+5=0

solving, we get x=1 or x=-5

Solve the expression 94-x-67-x
Leni [432]

I guess it is simplifying the expression:

{ \tt{94 - x - 67 - x}} \\  = { \tt{94 - 67 + ( - x - x)}} \\  = { \tt{27 - (x + x)}} \\  = { \tt{27 - 2x}}

Find the zero of the function f (x) = -2x +2.
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:0 = 3x - 21

Step-by-step explanation:

From this given function we can take an  

x

common from its expression

i.e  

x

2

−

6

x

 

=

x

(

x

−

6

)

As we know that the product of two numbers is zero,when either one of them is zero

then in the above expression that we just factorised

the function can be zero when either  

x

=

0

or when  

x

=

6

i.e when  

x

=

0

,  

0

(

0

−

6

)

=

0

 

when  

x

=

6

,  

6

(

6

−

6

)

 

=

6

(

0

)

Finally, our prize of all that math, the zeroes of the function are  

0

and  

6

these numbers are called the zeroes of the function because when you put these values in  

x

the function gives zero.

So confused.....please help.......

I think it is option A. Order matters; if the order is interchanged, the position of the figure will most likely change. You can try it out yourself too! Hope I helped! Happy Holidays!
