Answer:
The value of x is -6
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us equate the fraction by its equivalent
∵
= -22
→ Multiply both sides by (x - 10) to cancel the denominator of the left side
∴
× (x - 10) = -22 × (x - 10)
∴ 352 = -22(x - 10)
→ Simplify the right side by multiplying -22 by the bracket (x - 10)
∵ 352 = -22(x) - 22(-10)
∴ 352 = -22x + 220
→ Add 22x to both sides
∵ 22x + 352 = -22x + 22x + 220
∴ 22x + 352 = 220
→ Subtract 352 from both sides
∴ 22x + 352 - 352 = 220 - 352
∴ 22x = - 132
→ Divide both sides by 22 to find x
∴ 
∴ x = -6
∴ The value of x is -6
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
5 and 7 are both common factors of 35 and 40
Looking at the options you can eliminate C and D right away because 7 times 8 = 56 and not 40 like the problem is asking.
This leaves A and B. Looking at the equation the difference between the two are the + and -
Using the original equation (35x-40) as reference we see that it subtracts the two variables. Therefore leaving A as the answer
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The first (and only step) is to remove the brackets.
-1/2 * - 3y = 3/2y Two minus make a plus
-1/2 * 10 = - 5
Answer: 3/2 y - 5
