Answer:
B.
Step-by-step explanation:
If x is a number, then twice a number is 2x. The difference between 17 and 2x is 17-2x.
Common Error:
A. says 17 less than twice a number. Since it is 17 less, it is 2x-17 not 17-2x.
Hope this answer helped! :)
-8n+7=31
-8n+7-7=31-7
-8n=31-7
-8n=24
-8n÷(-8)=24÷(-8)
n=24÷(-8)
n=-24÷8
n=-3
A could be 2 while B could be 3, so -2a+3b turns into -4+9, which equals 5.
From what I know you can't really solve a a single equation with two-variables so it's just a matter of trial and error.
Just try plugging in a small number like 2 for a just to try it and you get 8b^2=72.
Divide everything by 8 to isolate b and you get that b^2=9.
Square root everything and you'll find that b=3. This is just one possible combination, I'm sure there are many more but this is obviously the one that was intended to be found.
Now that we know that a=2 and b=3 just plug them into the equation.
-2(2)+3(3)=?
-4+9=?
5
Sorry about having to use this ^ symbol, the equation maker is not working.
