-5x - 3(-4x - 9) = 83
Add 5x to both sides
-3(-4x-9) = 83 + 5x
Divide by -3
-4x-9 = 83/3 + 5/3x
Subtract 5/3x
-4x -5/3x -9 = 83/3
Add 9
-17/3x = 110/3
Multiply by 3
-17x = 110
Divide by -17
X = 6 and 8/17

-5x-3(-4x -9)= 83

Distribute. 

-5x+12x+27= 83 (two negatives equal a positive) 

Combine like terms.

7x+27= 83

Subtract 27 from both sides.

7x= 56

Divide 7 into both sides.

x=8

I hope this helps!

On Friday, 3/5 of the students wore blue shirts and 1/4 of the students wore white shirts. What fraction of the students wore ei
velikii [3]
Since 3/5 of the students wore blue shirts and 1/4 of the students wore white shirts, you need to find the Total of 3/5 and 1/4.
First, step find a common denominator for both fractions
EXAMPLE: 3/5+1/4=Total 3/5 becomes 12/20 and 1/4 becomes 5/20.
Second, notice that both fractions now have the same denominator, now you can find the sum of both fractions which is 17/20
Finally, you need to check if the fraction can be SIMPLIFIED if not then the fraction is already im simplest form.
THE ANSWER: 17/20 of students wore either a blue or white shirt on Friday

UW= 2 and UX=y. Write an expression for WX
Eddi Din [679]
Divide each term by U and simplify. X=y/U and W=2/U. Next, solve the equation for y. Simplify the left side then cancel the common factor of U. 1/1*y/1=y

W=2/U. Multiply 1/1*y/1=y/1 so, y/1=y and W=2/U. Next, divide y/y to get 1 now y=y, still W=2/U. Now, move all terms containing y to the left side.  Since, Y contains the variable to solve for, move it to the left side of the equation by subtracting y from both sides. Now, y-y=0 still W=2/U.  Next, subtract y from y to get zero and still W=2/U.  Subtract y from y to get zero or 0=0 and W=2/U is your expression since 0=0.


Next: UW=m and WX=y+14  write expression for UX

First, divide each term by W and simplify. U=m/W, WX=y+14. Next, solve the equation for Y. Move y from the right side of the equation to the left side. Still, U=m/W and y=-14+WX.  We must reorder -14 and WX. U=m/w and y=WX-14.
Replace the variable U with m/W in the expression to (m/W)X. Next, simplify (m/W)X. Now, write X and a fraction with denominator 1. Looks like this
fractions are side by side m/W X/1 . Multiply, m/W and X/1 to get mX/W.
mX/W is your final expression for UW=m and WX=y+14 expression for UX.
