2x-4=3-x +1
<span>Simplifying
2x + -4 = 3 + -1x + 1
Reorder the terms:
-4 + 2x = 3 + -1x + 1
Reorder the terms:
-4 + 2x = 3 + 1 + -1x
Combine like terms: 3 + 1 = 4
-4 + 2x = 4 + -1x
Solving
-4 + 2x = 4 + -1x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add 'x' to each side of the equation.
-4 + 2x + x = 4 + -1x + x
Combine like terms: 2x + x = 3x
-4 + 3x = 4 + -1x + x
Combine like terms: -1x + x = 0
-4 + 3x = 4 + 0
-4 + 3x = 4
Add '4' to each side of the equation.
-4 + 4 + 3x = 4 + 4
Combine like terms: -4 + 4 = 0
0 + 3x = 4 + 4
3x = 4 + 4
Combine like terms: 4 + 4 = 8
3x = 8
Divide each side by '3'.
x = 2.666666667

x = 2.666666667</span>
Unit rate is a ratio between two different units with a denominator of one. When we divide a fraction's numerator by its denominator, the result is a value in decimal form. For example: 8/4 = 2 and 3/6 = 0.5. When we write numbers in decimal form, we can write them as a ratio with one as the denominator.
For example, we can write 2 as 2/1, and 0.5 as 0.5/1. However, since that approach can be a little clumsy, we usually drop the one. That said, it's important to remember the one is there, especially when working with unit rates.
For instance, 8 miles/4 hours = 2 miles/hour. Notice again that, while we did not include the 1, we did include the unit 'hour' Miles per hour is a familiar expression, as are unit rates such as:
interest/amount invested
revolutions/minute
salary/year
Conversationally, the word ''per'' indicates we are using a unit rate.
The answer to this is 10 39/88.
That is basically 5 - 2 I believe so the answer is 3.
10+5x=7x-4
1. simplify 7x - 5x
10=2x-4
2. add four to both sides
10+4=2x
+ 4 4
14=2x
3. divide 14 to both sides
14=2x
x=7
