Step-by-step explanation:
Let's substitute 4 for n in each equation to check if it the resulting equation is correct:




Therefore the answer is D
Answer:
where are the choices
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: x + 12 = 3x + -22
12 + x = 3x + -22
Reorder the terms:
12 + x = -22 + 3x
Solving
12 + x = -22 + 3x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.
12 + x + -3x = -22 + 3x + -3x
Combine like terms: x + -3x = -2x
12 + -2x = -22 + 3x + -3x
Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0
12 + -2x = -22 + 0
12 + -2x = -22
Add '-12' to each side of the equation.
12 + -12 + -2x = -22 + -12
Combine like terms: 12 + -12 = 0
0 + -2x = -22 + -12
-2x = -22 + -12
Combine like terms: -22 + -12 = -34
-2x = -34
Divide each side by '-2'.
x = 17
Simplifying
x = 17
1) you would need to turn both fractions so they have a common denominator, that would be 2 2/4 and 3/4
2) then subtract : 2 2/4 - 3/4, and you would subtract numerators and the whole number, but you keep the denominator the same. However, you cannot subtract 2 and 3 in this case, so you need to change 2 2/4 to 1 5/4 (they are still equivalent)
3) 1 5/4 - 3/4 = 1 2/4, which simplified version is 1 1/2
Therefore, the answer is 1 and 1/2
