Answer:
Hey there!
Let's solve our equation below.
-2(x+3)= -2(x+1)-4
Let's distribute the parentheses.
-2x-6=-2x-2-4
We combine like terms.
-2x-6=-2x-6
We add 6 to both sides.
-2x=-2x
We divide both sides by -2
x=x
If, when solving an equation, you get one number or variable that equals itself, there are infinitely many solutions.
We can plug anything into this equation and it will always equal to same things, since x is just equal to whatever x value you want.
Therefore, there are infinitely many solutions.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
2.75 and -2.75
Step-by-step explanation:
The absolute value of 2.75 is 2.75 and the absolute value of -2.75 is 2.75
$78
The difference between choice A and B is 5 meals and $80 so 1 meal is $16. So we can subtract $16 from $250 and we get $234 for 3 nights. 1 night is $78
Simplifying
5(7x + -3) = 230
Reorder the terms:
5(-3 + 7x) = 230
(-3 * 5 + 7x * 5) = 230
(-15 + 35x) = 230
Solving
-15 + 35x = 230
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '15' to each side of the equation.
-15 + 15 + 35x = 230 + 15
Combine like terms: -15 + 15 = 0
0 + 35x = 230 + 15
35x = 230 + 15
Combine like terms: 230 + 15 = 245
35x = 245
Divide each side by '35'.
x = 7
Simplifying
x = 7
