Answer:

x= -5

Step-by-step explanation:

1. subtract 3 from both sides. You should have 2x = -10

2. divide both sides by 2. You should end up with x = -5

Answer:

X= -5

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. You must move all constants to one side of the equation (one side of the equal sign) and away from 2x. To do so, you must do the inverse operation, which would be subtraction in this case because 3 is a positive number. (Inverse of addition is subtraction, Inverse of subtraction is addition, Inverse of multiplication is division, and inverse of division is multiplication) If you squish a constant and variable together (2x) it means multiplication.
  2. What you must do to one side, you must do to the other. So, since you subtracted 3 from the 3, you must subtract 3 from -7, too(subtracting from a negative is just addition- but you keep the negative sign). Once this is done, your equation will be 2x=-10
  3. Now, you must do the inverse operation to 2x to separate the 2. The inverse operation will be division. So, you divide both sides by 2. 2x divided by 2 will give you x. -10 divided by 2 will give you -5. (When you divided negative and positive numbers, the signs are different, meaning it's negative. If they had the same sign, it would be positive.)
  4. Therefore, your answer is x= -5

Hope I helped! :)

Clara has a lawn in front of her house as mapped on the coordinate plane. She wants to plant a bed of flowers between the points
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

<em>Look Below In the Explanation</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Point P has coordinates of (4,4) and point Q has coordinates of (4,-4).

Since both points have the same x-coordinates we can subtract point Q's y-coordinate from point P's y-coordinate.

I will set the equation up and try and figure this part by yourself. I hope you learned what to do from previous questions that are very similar to this that I answered.

4 - ( -4) = length of the bed of flowers

Hope that helps and maybe earns a brainliest!

Have a splendid day! :^)
