Equation: 4x + 7 = 3(2x - 5)
Step-by-step solution:
• Expand brackets
-> 4x + 7 = 6x - 15
• Move x variable to a side and the numbers to another
-> 4x - 6x = -15 - 7
• Solve
-> -2x = -22
• Multiply both sides by (-1)
-> -(-2x) = -(-22)
-> 2x = 22
• Divide both sides by 2
-> x = 22/2
-> x = 11
• Justification
-> Put x = 11 in original equation
-> 4(11) + 7 = 3( 2(11) - 5)
-> 44 + 7 = 3(22 - 5)
-> 51 = 3(17)
-> 51 = 51
-> 51 - 51 = 0
-> 0 = 0
Since both sides are equal to each other, the answer to the equation is correct.
I don't know Sam's equation so I'm not gonna answer that.
Answer:
The second and fourth one
Step-by-step explanation:
The open circle means more/less than or equal to and the closed circle is only more than or less than and it is greater so it goes right
Your middle finger and index/pointer.
To estimate, you should round some of the numbers to the closest number (rounding up or down). It will be more accurate the less you round. In this problem, we should round -5 1/4 to -5 since it is the closest. -5*-3/2 = 7.7. You will end up with -3/2x (-5 1/4) ≈ 7.5x
≈ means approximately equal.
Answer:
x = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
-24 = 6x
________
Switch sides:
6x = -24
________
Divide both sides by 6:
6x/6 = -24/6
________
Simplify:
X = -4
