Let x be the unknown number

2x +7 = 39

2x+7-7 = 39-7

2x = 32

2x/2 = 32/2

x=16

You use the balance method to solve. First, you cancel the +7 by subtracting the 7 ON BOTH SIDES to balance the equation.. After that, you are left with 2x, where you will need to isolate the x by dividing by 2 ON BOTH SIDES to balance it.

Hope this helps

PLEASE HELPPPPPPPP ASAAAAP1!!!!!!!!
Radda [10]
As far as I can tell, that isn't a function at all. 

x = 0 produces y = -2 and y = 4, which can't happen.

Please don't use all caps, that's really, really irritating.

A farmer owns about 960 acres of land. If his farm is square, what would be the length of each side in miles, to the nearest ten
OLEGan [10]

It is given in the question that

A farmer owns about 960 acres of land. If his farm is square.

First we convert acres to miles square, and the conversion expression is

1 acre=0.0015625 mi^2

Therefore,

960acres=960*0.0015625=1.5 mi^2

Let the side length of the square be x miles .

And the formula of area of square is

Area=side^2&#10;\\&#10;1.5=side^2&#10;\\&#10;side= \sqrt{1.5}=1.2 miles
