3(x - 4) - 14 = 2(x - 7) + 6
⇒ 3x+ 3(-4) -14= 2x+ 2*7+ 6 (distributive property)
⇒ 3x -12 -14= 2x -14+ 6
⇒ 3x+ (-12 -14)= 2x+ (-14+ 6) (combine like terms)
⇒ 3x -26= 2x -8
⇒ 3x -2x= -8+ 26 (inverse operation)
⇒ x= 18

Final answer: x= 18.

3(x - 4) - 14 = 2(x - 7) + 6 \\ \\ 3x - 12 - 14 = 2x - 14 + 6 \ / \ expand \\ \\ 3x - 26 = 2x - 14 + 6 \ / \ simplify \\ \\ 3x - 26 = 2x - 8 \ / \ simplify \\ \\ 3x = 2x - 8 + 26 \ / \ add \ 26 \ to \ each \ side \\ \\ 3x = 2x + 18 \ / \ simplify \\ \\ 3x - 2x = 18 \ / \ subtract \ 2x \ from \ each \ side \\ \\ x = 18 \ / \ simplify \\ \\

The final result is x = 18.

Plssssssss help with this
Olenka [21]

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

If all the figures are similar, we'll have to shrink them at the same rate as the rest.

The ratio here is 2/5. So,

2/5 = 6.4/16

2/5 = x/10

x=4

Jordan is mixing water and flour to make tortillas. The number cups of water, w needed for f cups of flour is described by the e
Tresset [83]

Answer:

1\frac{1}{3} cups of flour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

w is the number of cups of water to be mixed with flour for making tortillas.

f is the number of cups of flour to be mixed with water for making tortillas.

Relation between w and f is given by the equation:

w=0.75f

To find:

Number of cups of flour to be added if number of cups of water to be used is 1.

Solution:

We are given an equation with two variables.

Value of one variable is given and we have to find the value of other variable.

1=0.75f\\\Rightarrow f = \dfrac{1}{0.75}\\\Rightarrow f = 1.33

Number of cups of flour to be added = 1\frac{1}{3}
