Answer:
1/7
Step-by-step explanation:
you divide both numbers by 4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Show that if 3x – 7 = 5, then x = 4.
Here, our given statement is 3x – 7 = 5, and we're asked to prove x = 4.
x=4
Statements Reasons
1. 3x – 7 = 5 Given
2. 3x – 7 + 7 = 5 + 7 Addition of 7 to equation (1)
3. 3x + 0 = 5 + 7 Substitution of –7 + 7 = 0 into (2)
4. 3x = 5 + 7 Substitution of 3x + 0 = 3x into (3)
5. 3x = 12 Substitution of 5 + 7 = 12 into (4)
6. 3x⁄3 = 12⁄3 Dividing equation (5) by 3
7. x = 12⁄3 Substitution of 3x⁄3 = x into (6)
8. x = 4 Substitution of 12⁄3 = 4 into (7)
Is there such a thing as being too descriptive? Yep, and that was it, since over half the proof was devoted to telling the reader how to do arithmetic. We'll typically take numerical computation for granted, and write proofs like this:
Hakima saves 560. Divide the 336 by 3. you get 112 so you multiply that by 5
Answer:
3 = x
Step-by-step explanation:
0 > 3x - 3 - 6
You want to group up the -3 and -6 first
0 > 3x - 9
Then you want to add 9 to each side to cancel out the negative 9 on one side.
0 > 3x - 9
+9 +9
9 > 3x
Now you just divide by 3 on each side
3 = x
