5x – 1 = 3x – 15

Subtraction Property of Equality  (Subtract 3x from both sides)

2x - 1 = -15

Addition Property of Equality   (Add 1 to both sides)

2x = - 14

Division Property of Equality   (Divide both sides by 2)

x = -7

Solve for x in the equation x^2+4x-4=8
quester [9]
I will get you started.

x^2+4x-4 = 8

x^2 + 4x - 4 - 8 = 0

x^2 + 4x - 12 = 0

You must now use the quadratic formula.

In the formula, a = 1, b = 4, and c = -12.

Take it from here.

Solve for<br> a. 7a-2b = 5a+b
Stels [109]
<span>So we have a problem with two unknows and one equation. We have to express one over the other like this: 7a - 2b = 5a + b. First we separate one kind on the left side and the other kind on the right side: 7a - 5a = b + 2b. Then: 2a = 3b. Now we divide both sides by 2 and get: a= 3b/2.</span>
