4x + 5 = x + 2
Subtract 2 from both sides.

Your equation will be: 4x+3=x
Subtract 4x from both sides.
Yoir equation will be: 3= -3x
Divide by -3x on both sides.

Your final answer: x=-1

To solve the equation 4x + 5 = x + 2, we need to get the terms with x on one side and the terms without x (the constants, or the numbers) on the other side.

4x + 5 = x + 2

The first step is to get the terms with x on one side. This can be done by subtracting x from both sides (it doesn't change the value of the equation, and it eliminates x from one side of the equation.

4x - x + 5 = x - x + 2

3x + 5 = 2

Now, we need to get the numbers on one side. This can be done by subtracting 5 from each side (for the same reasons as before).

3x + 5 - 5 = 2 - 5

3x = -3

Now, we want to get a singular x. This can be done by dividing both sides by the coefficient of x (3).

3/3x = - 3/3

x = -1

What is the MAD of the data set?<br><br> {10, 9, 16, 5, 10}
Oksanka [162]
First, you'd find the mean of all the numbers by doing 10+9+16+5+10 = 50/5 = 10. Second, you'd subtract all values from the mean by doing 
16 - 10 = 6
10 - 10 = 0
10 - 10 = 0
10 - 9 = 1
<span>10 - 5 = 5
Lastly, finding the mean of all 5 numbers would be, 2.4! Hope this helps!! :D</span>

To find the answer, add 200+300=500.
40+50=90
7+8=15

500+90+15=605

The answer is 605.
