For this case we have the following expression:
Applying distributive property to the terms within parentheses we have:
We add similar terms on both sides of equality considering that:
Equal signs are added and the same sign is placed.
Different signs are subtracted and the major sign is placed.
We add 7.5x to both sides of equality:
We subtract 72 from both sides of equality:
We divide between 3 on both sides of equality
ANswer:
Distributive property
Add similar terms
Equality property of the sum
Equality subtraction property
Equality property of the division
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
18 = 2 * 3 * 3 = 2 *3²
Hint:
Simplifying
18x + -44 = 13y + -38
Reorder the terms:
-44 + 18x = 13y + -38
Reorder the terms:
-44 + 18x = -38 + 13y
Solving
-44 + 18x = -38 + 13y
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '44' to each side of the equation.
-44 + 44 + 18x = -38 + 44 + 13y
Combine like terms: -44 + 44 = 0
0 + 18x = -38 + 44 + 13y
18x = -38 + 44 + 13y
Combine like terms: -38 + 44 = 6
18x = 6 + 13y
Divide each side by '18'.
x = 0.3333333333 + 0.7222222222y
Simplifying
x = 0.3333333333 + 0.7222222222y
