40 = 2x + 7

First, subtract 7 on both sides so you can get the variable on one side:

40 = 2x + 7
-7           -7
33 = 2x

Now, divide both sides by 2 to isolate x:

33 = 2x
33/2 = x

Hope this helps!

when nicky tried to solve an equation using properties of equality, she ended up with the equation -3=-3. what equation mioght s
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

<em>2(x - 1) - 1 = 3(x + 1) - 6 - x</em>

<em>There are infinitely many solutions.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equations</u>

Suppose Nicky was trying to solve the equation

2(x - 1) - 1 = 3(x + 1) - 6 - x

Operating:

2x - 2 - 1 = 3x + 3 - 6 - x

2x - 3 = 2x - 3

Subtracting 2x:

-3 = -3

This equation is true regardless of the value of x, thus x can have any value. There are infinitely many solutions.

The same result could have come with these equations:

4x - 3 = -3 + 4x

4(x - 1) + 1 = 4(x + 1) - 7

Someone please help me ive been trying this problem for 30 minutes

For q(x) = -2x - 2 and r(x) = x^2 + 2

Find the value of q(r(3)).

This is a problem that asks for you to find a function of a function. First things first, you must understand that it is asking you to plug r(3) into q(x) as the value of x. 

Let's start by plugging 3 into r(x). Doing so, you'd get
r(3) = 3^2 + 2

Solve it. 
r(3) = 9 + 2
r(3) = 11

You can see now that q(r(3)) is really q(11). Plug it in.
q(r(3)) = -2(11) - 2

Solve it. 
q(r(3)) = -22 - 2
q(r(3)) = -24
