Solve for x. 3(x + 2) + 4(x - 5) = 10
1 answer:
3 (x + 2) + 4(x - 5) = 10
Simplify.
3x + 6 + 4x - 20 = 10
Add like terms.
(3x+4x) + (6-20) = 10
Simplify.
7x - 14 = 10
Add 14 to both sides of the equation.
7x = 24
Divide both sides by 7 so that X is by itself.
x = 24/7, or 3 3/7

Answer:
infinite solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
x+6+8=2x-x+14
x+6+8=x+14
x+14=x+14
14=14
or
x=x
plug in any number
2+6+8=2(2)-2+14
16=16
another example
8+6+8=2(8)-8=14
22=22
They are going up by 2.15
Here's the answer, using the quadratic formula
5. 4 is in the tenths place and it is under 5 so it rounds down to 5
