Solve for x. 2x = 15 + x A: x = -15 B: x = 15 C: x = -15/2 D: x = 15/2

Ulleksa [173]

2x = 15 + x

First, our goal is to get 'x' to equal something by itself. To do so, we will have to do everything on one side. Let's subtract 'x' from each sides.
$2x - x = 15$

Second, our next step is to subtract '2x - x'. Since 'x' is basically considered (1), it will equal 'x'.
$x = 15$

Answer: $\fbox { x = 15 }$

Hotel Management: The Airgle AG800 can purify the air in a conference hall in 20 fewer minutes than it takes the Airgle AG950 to

marta [7]

Let x be the time for the AG800. Then the time for the AG950 is x + 20.
$\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{x+20}=\frac{2}{21}$
$\frac{x+20+x}{x(x+20)}=\frac{2}{21}$
Cross-multiplying and simplifying, we get:
$2x^{2}-2x-420=0$
The positive solution to this quadratic is: x = 15.
The answer is: Time for model AG800 = 15 minutes: time for model AG950 = 35 minutes.
