Answer:  When "x = 1" ;  "2(6-3x) + x"  DOES EQUAL "2(3x) + x" .
___________________________________________________

2(6-3x) + x = 12 - 6x + x  = 12 - 5x ;

<span>2(3x) + x = 6x + x = 7x ;

</span>Does:  12 - 5x = 7x ?

Add "5x" to each side of equation:

12 - 5x + 5x = 7x + 5x ;

to get:

12 = 7x + 5x ;

12 = 12x ; 

Divide each side of the equation by "12" ; 

12 / 12 = 12x / 12 ; 

to get:  1 = x ;  ↔ x= 1 ;

NO. You cannot subtract 3x from 6, since they are NOT like terms. 
You can think of it as the 6 does not have an x term, but in 3x, there is an x term.

The largest number which divides 60 and 75, leaving remainders 8 and 10 respectively is? Please I need an answer with a full exp
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

The largest number is 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the largest number which divides 60 and 75 to leave remainders 8 and 10 respectively

What this means is that we are looking for numbers such that when we divide 60 by it, we get remainder 8 and when we divide 75 by it, we get remainder 10

For 60;

The number is 13 for 60

This is because, since we are looking at leaving remainder 8, that means the actual figure we are looking at is 60-8 = 52

13 is actually the biggest factor of 52 in this case

For 75;

we are looking at remainder 10; take this away from 75, that will be 75-10 = 65

Also the factor here is 13 because 13 * 5 = 65 and we are 10 units away from 75
