<em><u>Answer: x=-2 *The answer should be the negative sign.*</u></em>
Step-by-step explanation:
distributive property: a(b+c)=ab+ac
remove parenthesis
-15x-15*4=-30
15*4=60
-15x-60=-30
add 60 both sides of an equation.
-15x-60+60=-30+60
simplify.
-15x=30
divide by -15 both sides of an equation.
-15x/-15=30/-15
simplify.
30/15=2
x=-2
Hope this helps!
Thanks!
Have a great day!
If Jackson went to the movies and payed $7 initially for his ticket and then payed $2 for each box of candy that he buys, then the equation could look like this: y = 2x + 7, where y represents the total cost and x represents the number of boxes of candy Jackson buys.
[(21 + 6) - 32] : 9.2 = (27 - 32) : 9.2 = -5 : 9.2 = -46
Answer:
C)
Step-by-step explanation:
|DF| = |DE| + |EF|
|DF| = 9x -36
|DE| = 47
|EF| = 3x+10
Substitute:
9x - 39 = 47 + 3x + 10
9x - 39 = 3x + 57 |+39
9x = 3x + 96 |-3x
6x = 96 |:6
x = 16
Put the value of x to the equation |EF| = 3x + 10
|EF| = (3)(16) + 10 = 48 + 10 = 58
Answer: |EF| = 58
