Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is 33.2
So the equation looks like this : 15*3x=78
subtract 15 from both sides: -15 -15
then divide by 3 from both sides
to isolate the variable: 3x=63
3/3x=63/3
x=21 (your mystery number is 21)
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the value of x make sure to get it on one side
First subtract 3x from each side. This makes the equation now
3x + 2 = -8 + 25
Now see what 25 subtract by 8 is (17)
3x + 2 = 17
Next subtract 2 from both sides
3x = 15
Lastly, divide 15 by 3, making x equal 5
x = 5
