5x + 1 = 6x - 7
5x - 6x = -7 - 1
-x = - 8
x = 8 <===

The sum of three consecutive odd numbers is one hundred fifty-nine

xeze [42]

First remember that sum means to add. now think about the equation. we need to find 3 numbers that equal 159 when added together. And they are all consecutive odd numbers. so let's call the first number X. the second number would be X+2 since we have to jump over 1 even number. The third number would be X+4 since we have to jump over 2 even numbers. so now an equation to represent this would be X+(X+2)+(X+4)=159. Add like terms, and remember order of operations. if you need help getting the answers leave me a comment.

D I believe because if you look at point B it is (3,3) but dilated to (9,9) and 9/3=3. Which also means that the side lengths will be 3 times the original triangle’s side lengths

Solve for x. 2x = 15 + x A: x = -15 B: x = 15 C: x = -15/2 D: x = 15/2

Ulleksa [173]

2x = 15 + x

First, our goal is to get 'x' to equal something by itself. To do so, we will have to do everything on one side. Let's subtract 'x' from each sides.
$2x - x = 15$

Second, our next step is to subtract '2x - x'. Since 'x' is basically considered (1), it will equal 'x'.
$x = 15$

Answer: $\fbox { x = 15 }$
