Answer:

"subtracting b, then dividing by m"

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for a particular variable, look a the operations that are being performed on that variable. Then "undo" those operations in reverse order.

Here, the operations done to x are ...

• multiply by m

• add b to the product

Using the above recipe, first we "undo" the additon of b. We accomplish that by subtracting b from both sides of the equation. This gives ...

y - b = mx + b - b

y - b = mx . . . . . . . . . simplify

Next, we "undo" the multiplicatin by m. We accomplish that by dividing both sides of the equation by m.

(y -b)/m = mx/m

(y -b)/m = x . . . . . . . . simplify

This is your solution for x:

x = (y - b)/m

We found it by subtracting b, then dividing by m on both sides of the equation.

Virty [35]

Answer:

t=14

v=13

q=12

s=23

w=-4

x=28

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that the universal set =100

so, everything in it must add up to 100

first, from the information given to us,

t= n(A n C)= 14

v=n(B n C)= 13

to find q

we know from our guide that n(A) =40

which means everything inside A will add up to 40

therefore,

q + 7 + 7 + t = 40

and we already know that t = 14

so, that will be;

q + 7 + 7 + 14 = 40

therefore, q = 12

to find s,

we all know that n(B) = 50

which means that everything inside B will be equal to 50

therefore,

s + 7 + 7 + v = 50

and we know that v = 13

therefore,

s + 7 + 7 + 13 = 50

and s will end up to be = 23

to find w,

we know that n(C) = 30

so, everything in C end up to be all equal to 30

therefore,

t + 7 + w + v = 30

from our solution, t = 14, v = 13

so,

14 + 7 + w
