Lets Brian => b and Ethan => e so
b=5
e=3+2b

Which equation shows the variable terms isolated on one side and the constant terms isolated on the other side for the equation

Andrej [43]

Answer:

$5x= 15$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$3x - 5 = -2x +10$

Required

Write the variables and constants on different sides

$3x - 5 = -2x +10$

Add 2x to both sides

$2x + 3x - 5 =2x -2x +10$

$5x - 5 =10$

Add 5 to both sides

$5x - 5 + 5 = 10 + 5$

$5x= 10 + 5$

$5x= 15$

Hence, the equation is

$5x= 15$

Solving further [divide both sides by 5]

$x = 3$

What fraction has the greatest value 5/6, 7/12, 7/10

White raven [17]

First you have to make them to a common denominator.
5/6 7/12 7/10
50/60 35/60 42/60
from these the greatest value is 35/60 because 35 parts of 60 is bigger than the rest.
so the answer is 7/12

Answer: (3,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

$-3x-7y=5\\15x+6y=33$

$5(-3x-7y)=5(5)\\-15x-35y=25$

new system:

$-15x-35y=25\\15x+6y=33$

add.

$-29y=58\\y=-2$

plug in -2 for y

$-3x-7(-2)=5\\-3x+14=5\\-3x=-9\\x=3$

system:

$(3,-2)$

7 2/6 + 8 5/6
= (7 x 6 + 2)/6 + (8 x 6 + 5)/6
= (42 + 2)/6 + (48 + 5)/6
= 44/6 + 53/6
= (44 + 53)/6
= 97/6
