Answer:

x = -16

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(2x + 5) - 3 = -3(x - 1)

-4x - 10 - 3 = -3x + 3

-4x - 13 = -3x + 3

-x = 16

x = -16   <--- This is the answer

Hope this helps!

Answer:

x= -16

Step-by-step explanation:

distribute -2

-2 * 2x =-4x

-2 * 5 = -10

-4x - 10 -3 = -3 (x-1)

distribute -3

-3 * x = -3x

-3 * -1 = 3

-4x - 10 -3 = -3x + 3

combine like terms

-4x -13 = -3x + 3

-4x + 3x = -x

3 + 13 = 16

-x = 16

divide by -1

x = -16

Can someone help with #3 and show your work !!

If s represents the number of songs Kim downloads, her expenses for a month must satisfy the inequality
  5.00 + 0.58·s ≤ 13.00

To solve this, subtract 5.00 to get the s-term by itself, then divide by the coefficient of s.
  0.58·s ≤ 8.00
  s ≤ 8.00/0.58 ≈ 13.79
The number of songs must be an integer, so we conclude Kim can download 13 songs, but not 14 songs.

Kim can download 13 songs without exceeding her budget.
