The solution is x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is a linear equation so it will have only one equation

Given equation is:

$5x+3=2x+15$

Subtraction property of equality:

$5x+3-3 = 2x+15-3\\5x = 2x+12$

Subtraction property of equality:

$5x-2x = 2x-2x+12\\3x = 12$

Division Property of Equality:

$\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{12}{3}\\x = 4$

Hence,

The solution is x = 4

So 5
then 5 times 5
then 5 times 5 times 5
so it seems that for x rounds, there will be 5^x

A: 4 rounds so 5^4=625 photos
B. see how many times 5 goes into 78125. the answer is 7 so 7 rounds
C. 1 million=1,000,000 so try big numbers
5^10=9,765,625 too big
5^9=1,9,53,125 too big
5^8=390625 too small
the minimum is 5^9 or 9 rounds

PEASE HELP ASAP!!! The sum of two numbers is 58.

agasfer [191]

Answer:

y=15

x=43

(any variable can be used, I used x and y to make it easier to show)

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=58

x-y=28

get x by its self

x=58-y

then subsitute into the other equation

(58-y)-y=28

58-2y=28

-2y=-30

y=15

sub. again

x+15=58

x=43
