Bring like terms together
(REMEMBER CHANGE THE SIGN WHEN MOVING ACROSS THE EQUAL SIGN i.e. - becomes + and + becomes -)
4x - 2x = 7 - 3
2x = 4
divide both sides by 2
x = 2
Answer: infinitely many solutions.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok, our equation is:
-2.1*b + 5.3 = b - 3.1*b + 5.3
now, simplifyng the right side, we have:
b - 3.1*b + 5.3 = (1 - 3.1)*b + 5.3 = -2.1*b + 5.3
Then our initial expression is:
-2.1*b + 5.3 = -2.1*b + 5.3
So in both sides of the equality we have the exact same thing, so this is a trivial equality.
This means that the equality will remain true for any value of b, which means that we have infinitely many solutions.
Answer:
11 (if you wanna know how many cups [which i mean by 2/3] it is 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Well, to start, a cook has 11 7/8 cups of flour, right? Well, if you subtract 11 7/8 by 2/3 you get 11 5/24. As an estimate, you would get just plain 11 because there is three numbers when you estimate, 11, 11 1/2, or 12. 11 5/24 is more closer to 11 (because 1/2 would be 11 12/24, and 12 would be 11 13/24 or more until 12)
Hope it helped...
