Think of this as (1/5)x - 4 = -75, where x is the number that we are trying to figure out. To figure this out, we want to get x by itself, so we can go:
(1/5)x=-71
x=-71*5
x=-355
So your number is -355
Answer:
4/16
Step-by-step explanation:
You ate 4 slice of the 16 slice pizza
Answer: x = 8, y = 2, coordinates (8,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
2x = 4y + 8 (divide by 2 to get value of x)
x = 2y + 4
(now substitute x into the second equation to find value of y)
2y + 4 - 2y = 4
2y - 2y = 4 - 4 (divide by 2 to get value of y)
y - y = 2 - 2
y = 2
Now plug in value of "y" to get value of "x".
x - 2(2) = 4
x - 4 = 4
x = 8
Coordinates (8,2)
Answer:
C) 29x=5
reason:
first, distribute the parentheses
this will make your equation 8-20x=6-3+9x
simplify to get 8-20x=3+9x
add 20x to both sides to get 8=3+29x
subtract 3 from both sides to get 5=29x
