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
Step-by-step explanation:
5/8=.625 and 7/15=.466 repeating so 5/8 is a bigger fraction
-7x - 2y = 19
4x + y = -12
Set y equal to each other (opposite signs are fine and you could also set x equal instead of y)
-7x - 2y = 19
8x + 2y = -76
Add equations together
x = -52
Plug x value into an equation
4(-52) + y = -12
Solve for y
-208 + y = -12
y = 196
Hope this helps! ;)
Answer: -9
Step-by-step explanation:
I think you do multiplying fractions. So 1 1/2 x 20
