-1/2(x-6)-1/4(x-4)=x-7

1 answer:

8 0

-1/2(x-6)-1/4(x-4)-(x-7)= ?

Simplify 1/4
1 ÷ 4 = 0.25

Simplify 1/2
1÷2 = 0.5

The lowest common denominator of this problem is 4

16 - 3(x) / 4 - ( x - 7)

44 - 7(x) / 4

-7(x)+44 = 0

-7 - 44 = -51

-7 - 0 = -7

-7(x) = 44

-7(-1)(x) = x

-1(44) = -44

44 ÷ 7 = 6.28

We have have one solution in this problem

So, therefore x = 44/7

if you were to solve the following system by substitution, what would be the best variable to solve for and from what equation?

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+8y=12 3x-8y=11

If we have to solve by substitution, Take the first equation and divide by 2

2x/2 + 8y/2 =12/2

x+4y = 6

Then subtract 4y from each side

x = 6 -4y

Then substitute this into the second equation

This is best solved by elimination

2x+8y=12

3x-8y=11

----------------

5x = 36

x = 36/5
