What is the solution to 1/3x-5+171=x

2 answers:

8 0

x in (-oo:+oo)

(1/3)*x-5+171 = x // - x

(1/3)*x-x-5+171 = 0

166-2/3*x = 0 // - 166

-2/3*x = -166 // : -2/3

x = -166/(-2/3)

x = 249

x = 249

(1/3)x-5+171=x
I move the x on the right to the left so
(1/3)x-x-5+171=0
I then simplify so
(-2/3)x+166=0
I subtract 166 from both sides so
(-2/3)x = -166
Then I divide (-2/3) from both sides so
x = -166/(-2/3)
x = 249
and that's the answer
hope this helps

What is the answer = 8w- 8 - 6w = 4w - 7 w= ??

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

- 1/2 (or - 0.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

so first, simplify by combining like terms.

so 8w-6w = 2w

so now we have

2w - 8 = 4w - 7

now we have to get the w's to one side of the equation so we can solve for it. so that mean we have to subtract 2w from both sides. 2w - 2w is 0. and then 4w - 2w = 2w. so now we have

-8 = 2w - 7

then to slowly start isolating w, add 7 to both sides of th equation. so now its

-1 = 2w

finally to get w by itself divide 2 from both sides.

and the answer is

- $\frac{1}{2}$ = w
