Answer:
x= -18
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to isolate x ( move everything to the other side of the equation)
-7 = -1 + x/3
-6 = x/3
x= 3*-6
x= -18
Days in boston=x
days in colorado=1.4x
boston+colorado=2.4x
475=2.4x
475/2.4=2.4x/2.4
198=x
198*1.4=277
days in boston=198
days in colorado=277
198+277=475
Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
<1 and the 142-deg angle are vertical, so m<1 = 142 deg
The angle measuring 3x + 2 and <1 are same-side interior angles. If the lines are parallel, then those two angles are supplementary.
3x + 2 + 142 = 180
3x + 144 = 180
3x = 36
x = 12
The difference will be

.
Remember that parentheses are needed for the second polynomial because the negative is distributed to all of its terms.
