A) -9

-7(x+9)=9(x-5)-14x
-7x-63=9x-45-14x
-45 -45
-7x-18=9x-14x
+7x +7x
-18=9x+7x-14x
-18=2x
(-18)/2=(2x)/2

-7(x + 9) = 9(x - 5) - 14x → Given
-7x - 63 = 9x - 45 - 14x → Distributive Property
-7x - 63 = -5x - 45 → Combine like terms (9x and -14x)
-12x - 63 = -45 → Addition property of equality (-7x and -5x)
-12x = 18 → Addition property of equality (Add 63 to both sides)
x = -³/₂ or -1 ¹/₂ or -1.5

Hope it helps.

Two lines are intersecting. What is the value of x? Enter your answer in the box. (x + 23) (2x + 4)° Help! Please!!!
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

x = 51^o

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Intersecting lines

Required

Find x

To do this, we make use of:

x + 23^o + 2x + 4^o = 180^o --- angle on a straight line

Collect like terms

x  + 2x = 180^o - 4^o - 23^o

3x = 153^o

Divide both sides by 3

x = 51^o
