-9x-9=-2x+5

Then add 9+14

-9x=-2x+14

Then add 2+-9

-7x=14

So x=-2

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

So we are given the equation -3(3x + 3) = -2x + 5 and we are solving for x. We will have to try to get the equation into the form x = _. That would be our answer.

-3(3x + 3) = -2x + 5

Distribute the -3 on the left side.

-9x - 9 = -2x + 5

Add 2x to both sides to get rid of the -2x on the right side.

-9x - 9 + 2x = 5

Simplify.

-7x - 9 = 5

Add 9 to both sides to get rid of the - 9 on the left side.

-7x = 5 + 9

Simplify.

-7x = 14

Divide both sides by -7 to get rid of the coefficient of -7 on the left side.

x = 14 ÷ (-7)

Simplify.

x = -2

The answer is x = -2.

I hope you find my answer helpful. :)

eimsori [14]

Answer:

$The\ value\ of\ \frac{6 \frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{4}} \ is\ \frac{26}{3}.$

$The\ value\ of\ \frac{6 \frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{4}} \ is\ 8.67 (Approx).$

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

$Monique\ made\ several\ batches\ of\ soup\ for\ a\ potluck\ supper.$

$Each\ batch\ required\ \frac{3}{4}\ of\ a\ pound\ of\ potatoes.$

$she\ used\ a\ total\ of\ 6 \frac{1}{2}\ pounds\ of\ potatoes.$

As given the expression.

$= \frac{6 \frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{4}}$

$= \frac{\frac{13}{2}}{\frac{3}{4}}$

Solving the above

$= \frac{13\times 4}{2\times 3}$

$= \frac{26}{3}$

In the decimal form.

= 8.67 (Approx)

$Therefore\ the\ value\ of\ \frac{6 \frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{4}} \ is\ \frac{26}{3}.$

$Therefore\ the\ value\ of\ \frac{6 \frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{4}} \ is\ 8.67 (Approx).$
