Answer:
x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
-5 - (15x-1) = 2(7x-16) -x
Distribute the negative sign
-5-15x+1 = 2(7x-16)-x
Distribute the 2
-5-15x+1 = 14x -32-x
Combine like terms
-4-15x = 13x-32
Add 15x to each side
-4-15x+15x = 13x+15x-32
-4 = 28x-32
Add 32 to each side
-4+32 = 28x-32+32
28 = 28x
Divide each side by 28
28/28 = 28x/28
1 =x
Answer:
5a^2 +2a
Step-by-step explanation:
Like terms are ones with the same exponent of x. They can be combined.
3a^2 +2a +2a^2
= (3a^2 +2a^2) +2a
= (3+2)a^2 +2a
= 5a^2 +2a
Answer:
x = 1/2 or 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 4 = x +5 (1) subtract x
2x - 4 = 5 (2) subtract 5
2x + 1 (3) divide by 2
x = 1/2 or 0.5
Answer:
x = -96/23
Step-by-step explanation
-
= 4
multiply each side of equation by 24 to eliminate denominators
(24)
-
= 4 (24)
3(3x) - 8(4x) = 96
9x - 32x = 96
-23x = 96
x = -96/23
Answer:
Add the numbers together and divide by the number of numbers. (The sum of values divided by the number of values). Arrange the numbers in order, find the middle number. (The middle value when the values are ranked).
