Answer:
D. x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
NOTE : <u><em>there should be an equal sign somewhere in the given expression.</em></u>
suppose the equation is the following:
3(x-4)-5 = x-3
………………………………………………………
3(x - 4) - 5 = x - 3
⇔ 3x - 12 - 5 = x - 3
⇔ 3x - 17 = x - 3
⇔ 3x - 17 + 17= x - 3 + 17
⇔ 3x = x + 14
⇔ 2x = 14
⇔ x = 14/2
⇔ x = 7
Answer:
x=-5
Step-by-step explanation
The first box has eight x's and six 1's which means that it would be written as 8x+6
The second box has four x's and fourteen -1's which means that it would be written as 4x-14
You set them equal to one another
8x+6=4x-14
You subtract 4x from both sides
4x+6=-14
Subtract 6 on both sides
4x=-20
Divide 4 on both sides
x=-5

Answer:
Number line A.
Step-by-step explanation:
|-5x| - 11 = -1
Add 11 to both sides.
|-5x| = 10
-5x = 10 or -5x = -10
x = -2 or x = 2
Answer: Number line A.
