Larger: x
smaller: 180 - x

x + 16 = 3 (180 - x)
distribute the 3
x + 16 = 540 - 3x
subtract 16 from both sides
x = 524 - 3x
add 3x to both sides
4x = 524
divide both sides by 4
x = 131 (larger)
180 - 131 = 49 (smaller)

Solving system by substitution <br> Y=3x<br> Y=x+4
velikii [3]

So we're given Y = 3x.

We now can replace Y, for 3x in the equation:

Y = x + 4

3x = x + 4

3x - x = 4

2x = 4

x = 2

What is 10(x-2) = -20​
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

10(x−2)=−20

(10)(x)+(10)(−2)=−20(Distribute)

10x+−20=−20

10x−20=−20

Step 2: Add 20 to both sides.

10x−20+20=−20+20

10x=0

Step 3: Divide both sides by 10.

10x/10 = 0/10
