Subtitute the pair (3,28) to x and y, if the result in right side is -8, then the pair is a solution to the equation
2x - y/2
= 2(3) - 28/2
= 6 - 14
= -8
The result is -8, so the pair (3,28) is a solution
Answer:
x = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute: -4/5x + 7 = -5
Rearrange unknown terms to the left side of the equation: -4/5x = -5 - 7
Calculate the sum or difference: -4/5x = -12
Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of variable: x = -12 × (-5/4)
Remove the parentheses: x = 12 × 5/4
Cross out the common factor: x = 3 × 5
Calculate the product or quotient: x = 15
So the answer is: x = 15
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2 × ( 3x + 6 )° + ( 16x + 14 )° = 180°
22x + 26 = 180
22x = 154
x = 7
Answer: 9x-3x and 5x+x
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Brianna's thinking is incorrect because of course, when x is 0, the expression will equal whatever value isn't an x term. To find equivalent expression, you actually need to find which expressions have the same amount of x terms and the same value.
2. Expressions A and C are equivalent.
3. Expression A can be simplified, as you can do 9x - 3x = 6x, so your final expression would be 6x - 4. Expression C can also be simplified with 5x + x = 6x, which can then also be written as 6x - 4. This means both expressions have the same amount of x terms, and the same value, so they are equivalent.
