What is the value of x in the equation 8(4-x)=7x+2

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ksenya-84 [330]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x=15

Step-by-step explanation:

8(4-x)=7x+2

Distribute

32 - 8x = 7x+2

Add 8x to each side

32 - 8x+8x = 7x+8x+2

32 = 15x+2

Subtract 2 from each side

32-2 = 15x +2-2

30 = 15x

Divide by 15

30/15 = 15x/15

2 = x

Why do systems of nonlinear equations sometimes have more than one solution
Nitella [24]

Answer:

System has equal number of unknowns and equations.

Manipulation easily yielded expressions for 4 of the 7 unknowns.

However it seems that the remaining 3 unknowns x,y,z are not fixed by the equations. Different combinations (x0,y0,z0) seem possible without violating the system equations.

Is this possible, or did I most probably make a mistake in counting degrees of freedom?

the store however, lost the original $100 bill plus the $70 in merchandise, so they have -$170.
