Solve the equation 3x=5(x+3)-3

1 answer:

4 0

3x = 5(x + 3) - 3 |use distributive property: a(b + c) = ab + ac

3x = 5x + 15 - 3

3x = 5x + 12 |subtract 5x from both sides

-2x = 12 |divide both sides by (-2)

x = -6

If 5x – 4 = 31, what is the value of x?

Lunna [17]

Answer:

x = 5 $\frac{2}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

So, to answer this problem, I'll use the reverse method.

31 - 4 = 27,

So how many times, can 5 go into 27?

The closest factor of 5 to 27 is 25.

5 can go in to 27, 5 times.

Continuing on, there is a 2 left over, so the answer to your question is

x = 5 $\frac{2}{5}$

5 · 5 $\frac{2}{5}$ - 4 = 31

Let me know if I am incorrect and I will attempt to find the right answer for you.
