How to solve this equation 5x-4-7x=4

Mathematics

elixir [45]3 years ago

Answer:

x= -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

5x + -4 = 7x + 4

Solving

-4 + 5x = 4 + 7x

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-7x' to each side of the equation.

-4 + 5x + -7x = 4 + 7x + -7x

Combine like terms: 5x + -7x = -2x

-4 + -2x = 4 + 7x + -7x

Combine like terms: 7x + -7x = 0

-4 + -2x = 4 + 0

-4 + -2x = 4

Add '4' to each side of the equation.

-4 + 4 + -2x = 4 + 4

Combine like terms: -4 + 4 = 0

0 + -2x = 4 + 4

-2x = 4 + 4

Combine like terms: 4 + 4 = 8

-2x = 8

Divide each side by '-2'.

x = -4

Simplifying

x = -4

A start-up company opened with 8 employees.
tiny-mole [99]

By representing the equation is written in the form y = ax + b .

The value of b is 8.

According to the question

A start-up company opened with 8 employees.

So, Number of employees = 8

At zero quarter = 8

The company’s growth plan assumes that 2 new employees will be hired each quarter

After 1 quarter = Number of employees + 2 new employees

After one quarter = 8 + 2 = 10

Equation is written in the form y = ax + b to represent the number of employees, y, employed by the company x quarters after the company opened

y = ax  + b

10 = 2 × 1 + b

10 = 2 + b

Subtract 2 on both sides of the equation

b = 10 - 2

b = 8

The value of b is 8.
