Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x+7=3

First you want to get the variable alone. To do that you need to subtract 7 from both sides

-2x+7(-7)=3(-7)

-2x=-4

Next you need to divide -2 on both sides to isolate the variable.

-2x/-2=-4/-2

-2/-2 is 0 and -4/-2 is <em>positive </em>2 because a negative divided by a negative is positive.

x=2

Since x=2 you can plug in 2 into 5x-10 to get the final answer.

5(2)-10

10-10

!solve this!<br> 3x + 70 − 7x ≥ 18

UNO [17]

Answer:

3x + 70 − 7x ≥ 18

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the inequality.

−4x + 70 ≥ 18

Step 2: Subtract 70 from both sides.

−4x + 70 − 70 ≥ 18 − 70

−4x ≥ −52

Step 3: Divide both sides by -4.

−4x /−4 ≥ −52 /−4

x ≤ 13
