Answer:
1. x = 86
2. x = 31
3. x = 64
4. x = 29
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 2x + 8 = 180
-8 -8
2x = 180 (divide both sides by 2 to get x by itself)
2. 3x - 3 = 90
+ 3 +3
3x = 93 (divide both sides by 3 to get x by itself. you divide because 3x is multiplying and you have to do the reverse operation)
3. 2x -5 + x - 7 = 180 (you combine like-terms)
3x -12 = 180
+12 +12
3x = 192 (you divide by 3 on both sides)
4. x + 1 + x + 4 + x - 2 = 90 (combine like-terms)
3x + 3 = 90
-3 -3
3x = 87 (divide both sides by 3)
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
2(x + 1) = 3(5 - x) + 2
Distribute,
2(x + 1) = 3(5 - x) + 2
2x + 2 = 3(5 - x) + 2
Rearrange terms,
2x + 2 = 3(5 - x) + 2
2x + 2 = 3(-x + 5) + 2
Distribute,
2x + 2 = 3(-x + 5) + 2
2x + 2 = -3x + 15 + 2
Add the numbers,
2x + 2 = -3x + 15 + 2
2x + 2 = -3x + 17
Subtract 2 from both sides,
2x + 2 = -3x + 17
2x + 2 - 2 = -3x + 17 - 2
2x = -3x + 17 - 2
2x = -3x + 15
Add 3x to both sides,
2x = -3x + 15
2x + 3x = -3x + 3x + 15
5x = -3x + 3x + 15
5x = 15
Divide both sides by the same factor (15),
5x = 15
5x/5 = 15/5
x = 15/5
x = 3
Hence, the answer is 3.
