Answer:

5x - 6 = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We know that we don't know the actual number. We can use x to sub in for that number.

2. We also know that the equivalent eventually gets us to 8, so write:

  • x=8

3. The equation multiplies the number by 5, and then subtracts 6. It must be in this order because of PEMDAS. Write like so:

  • 5x- 6 = 8

You could solve it too, if you like:

  1. 5x = 8+6
  2. 5x = 14
  3. x = 14/5
  4. x= 2.8

Then feel free to check your answer, substituting 2.8 for x:

  1. 5(2.8) - 6 = 8
  2. 14 - 6 = 8
  3. 8 = 8

Hope that helped

Which is the constant term of the algebraic expression -2x^2+17-15x+7xy?
andrew11 [14]
The given expression is
-2x² + 17 - 15x + 7xy

The algebraic expression may be written as
-2x² + 7xy - 15x + 17

The constant term does not contain either x or y.
Therefore  17 is the constant term.

Answer: 17

otez555 [7]

Answer:

-3x= 2×2-4

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x= 4-4

-3x= 0

divide both sides by the co-efficient of x

-3x/-3= 0÷-3

  • x= 0/-3

x = 0
