Answer: 1.25 or 5/4
Steps:
Move the -3x to the other side by adding it which gives you 4x=5. Then divide by 4 to have the x alone which gives you the answer. Hopes this helps :)

To find the value of x, you need to isolate/get the variable "x" by itself in the equation:

x = -3x + 5      Add 3x on both sides to get "x" on one side of the equation

x + 3x = -3x + 3x + 5

4x = 5     Divide 4 on both sides to get "x" by itself

\frac{4x}{4}=\frac{5}{4}

x=\frac{5}{4}

A study showed that the ratio of the number of people who get their news from print sources to the number of people who get thei
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

270 = number who get news from print sources

630 =  number who get news from social media

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 3x = number who get news from print sources

and 7x = number who get news from social media

Then 3x + 7x = 900

10x = 900

x = 90

3x = 3(90) = 270 = number who get news from print sources

7x = 7(90) = 630 =  number who get news from social media

Check:  270/630 = 3/7 and 270 + 630 = 900

Find the common difference for the terms of the arithmetic sequence: 11, 23, 35, 47, 59,
kozerog [31]
The common difference is 12. However, let’s take a look at how we got there!

First take the 2nd term (23) and find the difference from the 1st term (11). The difference is 12.

Repeat this for the remaining terms…

35 - 23 = 12
47 - 35 = 12
59 - 47 = 12


The common difference is 12.

Which value of x makes the following equation true?
inysia [295]

Distribute the 2 to all terms within the parenthesis

2(x + 8) = 2x + 16

2x + 16 = x + 20

Isolate the x. Subtract x from both sides and 16

2x (-x) + 16 (-16) = x (-x) + 20 (-16)

2x - x = 20 - 16

Simplify. Combine like terms.

x = 4

C. 4 is your answer

hope this helps
