Answer:

x =9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = be the number

2x -3 =15

Add 3 to each side

2x-3 +3 =15 +3

2x = 18

Divide each side by 2

2x/2 =18/2

x =9

What is the value of x?
anygoal [31]

Answer:

<h2>x = 19</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

There are the vertical angles. The vertical angles are congruent. Therefore we have the equation:

7x-8=6x+11            <em>add 8 to both sides</em>

7x-8+8=6x+11+8

7x=6x+19           <em>subtract 6x from both sides</em>

7x-6x=6x-6x+19\\\\x=19

Taylor and Jesse are buying a magazine for $3.75 and a snack for $2.49 what is s the total cost of the two items?
Kazeer [188]

Hey There!

The answer you are looking for is; $6.24!

Work:

You simply add $3.75 + $2.49 together.

Since .75 + .29 = 1.24, you carry the one over to the full dollar.

3 + 2 + 1 = 6.

= 6.24

Hope I helped! 5 stars and brainliest are always appreciated.

Is 5 + 3x1 - x) equivalent to 8 – 8x?
nalin [4]

Answer:

no

Step-by-step explanation:

5+3x is equal to 8x.

if there is no number in front of a variable, it is understood to be a one. so 1-x would basically be 1-1. this cancels out the x, making it impossible for the equivalent equation to be 8 - 8x
