Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve using inverse operations

5 ( x + 2 ) - 7 = 3x + 5

first distribute the 5

5x + 10 - 7 = 3x + 5

simplify the expression

5x + 3 = 3x + 5

Inverse operations, then simplify

5x + 3 = 3x + 5

-3               -3

5x = 3x + 5 - 3

5x = 3x + 2

-3x    -3x

2x = 2

/2     /2

x = 1

Answer: X = 1

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1: First distribute the 5. 5*x = 5x 5*2=10

Step 2: So now you have 5x+10-7=3x+5

Then you want to combine like terms (CLT)

10-7= 3

5x+3=3x+5

Step 3: Now you want to have opposite integers

5x+3=3x+5

    -3       -3

5x=3x+2

Step 4: Like the last step but with the numbers that have variables

5x=3x+2

-3x -3x

2x=2

Step 5: Now you want to divide the variable with the whole number

2x=2

_____

2      2

x = 1

I need help with this slope question grade 10 math
Bingel [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

a) D=(-1,5) E=(-3,1)

b) you do it by adding B coordinates with each other and C coordinates with each other then comparing how its related to D coordinates and E coordinates. B=2+6=8

C= -2-2= -4 D= -1+5= -4 E=-3+1= -2.

or tou can try another method which is knowing the length of each line.

F(x) = 3x + 1. Solve for x if f(x) = 19
OLga [1]
To solve, set your equation to your solution.

3x+1=19

Start by subtracting 1 from each side to start isolating the x.

3x+1=19
-1 -1
————-
3x=18

Next, divide both sides by 3 to completely isolate the x.

3x=18
—- ——
3 3

x=6

Therefore, x for f(x)= 19 is 6

You can check by inserting into the equation 3(6)+1=18+1=19.

Hope this helps!!
