Hi there! With equations like this we want to get our variable on one side and and our constant on the other.
So with 2x + 3 = -7 you'd subtract the constant 3 from both sides of the equal sign to get 2x = -10, then you'd divide both sides by 2 to get x = -5. If you double check your work by replacing x in the original equation with our answer we'd find that 2(-5) + 3 = -7 is correct.
Hope you find this helpful :)
He went upstream 3 hours and downstream two. 4x3=12 6x2=12
He went 24 miles.
Short side length = x
Medium side = x + 7
Long side = 5x
Total 49, so
x + x + 7 + 5x = 49
If you combine like terms:
7x + 7 = 49
Subtract 7 from both sides
7x = 42
Divide both sides by 7
x = 6 inches.
Answer:
5a + (-6a) + (-2b) + 2b + (-3) = -a -3 or -(a + 3) so first answer is correct because -(a + 3) is the same as -(3 + a)
Step-by-step explanation:
Social Security's Old-Age, Survivors, and Disability Insurance (OASDI) tax rate for wages paid in 2018 is set by the state at 6.2 % for employees and employers, each. An individual with wages equal to or larger than $128,400 would contribute $7,960.80 to the OASDI program. Since Elizabeth receives a salary of $72,580 from Picasso paint supplies, a lot lower than <span>$128,400, there will be no deduction. </span>
