Answer:
7x-20=2x-3(3x+2)
We move all terms to the left:
7x-20-(2x-3(3x+2))=0
We calculate terms in parentheses: -(2x-3(3x+2)), so:
2x-3(3x+2)
We multiply parentheses
2x-9x-6
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
-7x-6
Back to the equation:
-(-7x-6)
We get rid of parentheses
7x+7x+6-20=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
14x-14=0
We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right
14x=14
x=14/14
x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
and 
Step-by-step explanation:
If two equations are given, we can solve one of the equation in terms of single variable and put it in the other equation which will further give the value of x and y.
For the given equations:
Equation:1
Equation:2
Solving equation multiply equation 2 with 4 on both the sides
Equation 3
Subtracting Equation:3 from Equation:1
Putting value of 'y' in Equation:2 which will give the value of x
Answer:
let x is the smaller number
bigger number is x + 8
The sum of two numbers is 72
so
x + (x+8) = 72
answer
x + (x + 8) = 72
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
negative
Step-by-step explanation:
because a positive multiplied by a negative number equals a negative number.
