Answer: x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to open up the parenthesis so you multiply every term inside the parenthesis by -7.
1. -7x + 14 + 1 = 15 -7x
2. Combine like terms -7x + 15 = 15-7x
The two sides of the equation are the same so that means that x=1
4(a-2)=3(a+4)
4a-8=3a+12
a=20
In this question, the trail is 2940 miles long and Manfred is already hiking the 3/7 of the trail. You are asked how many miles he has a hike. Then to find it you just need to multiply the trail length with the ratio of hike/total trail. The calculation would be:
2940 miles * 3/7 = 1260 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The equivalent expression of 8x + 12 - x = 7x + 12
Y - 3 = 2(x+5)
y - 3 = 2x + 10
-3 - 10 = 2x - y
-13 = 2x - y
D) 2x - y = -13
