Answer:

The value of x is -5/3.

The value of 1/3 - x is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

-3( x+2)-5=x-(6+x)          Distribute

-3x + -6 - 5 = x - 6 - x      Combine llike terms

-3x + -11    = -6              <em><u>POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE IS NEGATIVE</u></em>

      -3x -11 =  -6              Add 11 on both sides

            -3x = 5            Isolate the variable by dividing -3 on both sides

              x  =  -5/3

1/3 - x

= 1/3 - -5/3   <u><em> </em></u><u><em>NEGATIVE AND NEGATIVE IS POSITIVE</em></u>

= 1/3 + 5/3

= 6/3

<em>= 2</em>

<em>You must isolate the variable in order to solve equations with variables. </em>

<em> </em>

<em>Isolating variable is basically when you divide, multiply, add, or subtract to put a variable on </em><u><em>ONLY </em></u><em>one side of the equation. </em>

<em> </em>

KL = 8x-5 and LM = 6x+3
Burka [1]
The answer is x=4. 
set the equations up: 8x-5=6x-3
Subtract 6x from one side and then the other side 2x-5=3 
Add 5 from one side and then the other 2x=8
Divide 2 on each side which gets you x=4

The nth term of a sequence is 3n + 2
gavmur [86]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the first 3 terms substitute n = 1, 2, 3 into the n th term rule

a_{1} = (3 × 1) + 2 = 3 + 2 = 5

a_{2} = (3 × 2) + 2 = 6 + 2 = 8

a_{3} = (3 × 3) + 2 = 9 + 2 = 11

------------------------------------------------------------------

substitute n = 10 into the n th term rule

a_{10} = (3 × 10) + 2 = 30 + 2 = 32
