You can set up an equation based off of the information given:

x represents the unknown number

3/5x - 1 = 23

add 1 to both sides to isolate the 3/5x

3/5x = 24

divide both sides by 3/5 to solve for x

x = 120/3

120/3 can be simplified into 40

Final answer: x = 40

Find the missing value of the ordered triple that will make the solution to the equation x + 2y – 3z = 8 true.
erica [24]

The missing value of the ordered triple for questions 7,8,9 and 10 will be  y=2,x=6,z=0, and z=-5 respectively.

<h3>What is the equation?</h3>

A mathematical statement consisting of an equal symbol between two algebraic expressions with the same value is known as an equation.

The given equation in the problem is;

7) (4, ,0)

Substitute the values in the equation;

⇒x+2y-3z = 8,

⇒4+2y-3(0) = 8

⇒2y=8-4

⇒2y=4,

⇒y=4/2

⇒y=2

8) (, -2, -2)

Substitute the values in the equation;

   

x+2(-2) -3(-2)= 8

x-4+6 =8

x= 8-6+4

x=8-6+4

x=6

9)(2, 3, )

Substitute the values in the equation;

⇒2+2(3)-3z = 8

⇒8-3z = 8

⇒-3z = 0

⇒z = 0/-3

⇒z= 0

10) (-3, -2, )

Substitute the values in the equation;

   

⇒-3+2(-2) -3z = 8

⇒-7 -3z = 8

⇒-3z = 15

⇒z = 15/-3

⇒z = -5

Hence, the missing value of the ordered triple for questions  7,8,9, and 10 will be  y=2,x=6,z=0, and z=-5 respectively.
