How to do this problem -9=x-14

1 answer:

8 0

Hello there!

To solve for this problem, you need to solve for x. To do that, you must isolate the variable (x) on one side of the equation.

We have the following equation:
-9 = x - 14

To isolate x, we need to get rid of -14.
So, to get rid of -14, we need to cancel it out by implementing a number of equal but opposite value. The opposite of -14 and is of equal value is 14.
Add 14 to both sides.

-9 + 14 = 5
-14 + 14 = 0

We are now left with the following solution:
x = 5

I hope this helps!

Let, the time when <span>Jan cough up to Carol = x

We know, Distance = Speed * Time.

So, Equation would be: 2x + 5*2 = 6x

2x + 10 = 6x

6x - 2x = 10

4x = 10

x = 10/4 = 2.5

Distance traveled in that time = 2.5 * 6 = 15 miles

In short, Your Answer would be: 15 miles
