1 answer:
Anvisha [2.4K]4 years ago

Answer:

x = 4 2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 x= -1/2x+5

Add 1/2 to each side

2/3 x 1/2 x = -1/2x+1/2x+5

2/3 x +1/2x =5

Get a common denominator

2/3x *2/2  + 1/2 *3/3 = 5

4/6x + 3/6x = 5

7/6x = 5

Multiply each side by 6/7 to isolate x

6/7 *7/6x = 5 *6/7

x = 30/7

Change to a mixed number

x = 28/7 + 2/7

x = 4 2/7

7x - 20 = 2x - 3(3x + 2)
kirill [66]

Answer:

7x-20=2x-3(3x+2)

We move all terms to the left:

7x-20-(2x-3(3x+2))=0

We calculate terms in parentheses: -(2x-3(3x+2)), so:

2x-3(3x+2)

We multiply parentheses

2x-9x-6

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-7x-6

Back to the equation:

-(-7x-6)

We get rid of parentheses

7x+7x+6-20=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

14x-14=0

We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

14x=14

x=14/14

x=1
