Answer:
First we chose one side to solve.
I am doing the one on the left first.
so -3x+-24-12
-3x-12
Now we do the other side
62-24 is
38 therefore
-3x-12=38
Answer:
x = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
x - 3 = 8
x = 8 + 3
x = 11
Answer: The number is -9/7
Step-by-step explanation:
The statement can be expressed by the equation
7(n + 2) = 5 where n is the number
Now solve for n
7(n+2) = 5 distribute on the left side
7n + 14 = 5
-14 -14
7n = - 9
n = -9 /7
