Mathematics
1 answer:
Maslowich3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(5x+4)-3x+3=-18

Distribute the -2

-10x -8-3x+3 = -18

Combine like terms

-13x -5 = -18

Add 5 to each side

-13x-5+5 = -18+5

-13x=-13

Divide by -13

-13x/-13 = -13/-13

x =1

Can someone teach me how to balance algebra equations, I just don't get how to do it. Like with fractions?
natka813 [3]

Answer:

<h3>Move all the x terms to one side. Use inverse operations and add 1 5 x 15x 15x to both sides to keep the equation balanced. Solve by working backwards from the order of operations. This means we need to undo the −2 first by adding 2 to both sides of the equation to keep it balanced.</h3>

12 + 2b = 180;
2b = 168;
b = 84;
a = 12 + 84;
a = 96;
