Answer:
C. -1 is less than x
Step-by-step explanation:
-3 < 4x + 1
-3-1 < 4x +(1 -1)
-4 < 4x
-4/4 < 4x/4
-1 < x
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
-5 x 5 = -25
Answer:
5 should be subtracted from each term
Step-by-step explanation:
Cross multiply,
1 * (11 - x) = 2*(8-x)
11 -x = 2*8 - 2*x
11 - x = 16 - 2x
Subtract 11 from both sides,
-x = 16 - 2x - 11
-x = 5 - 2x
Add 2x to both sides
-x +2x = 5 - 2 + 2x
x = 5
Answer:
x=−2
Step-by-step explanation: Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
3(x−5)−3=5(x−2)+2x
(3)(x)+(3)(−5)+−3=(5)(x)+(5)(−2)+2x(Distribute)
3x+−15+−3=5x+−10+2x
(3x)+(−15+−3)=(5x+2x)+(−10)(Combine Like Terms)
3x+−18=7x+−10
3x−18=7x−10
Step 2: Subtract 7x from both sides.
3x−18−7x=7x−10−7x
−4x−18=−10
Step 3: Add 18 to both sides.
−4x−18+18=−10+18
−4x=8
Step 4: Divide both sides by -4.
−4x
−4
=
8
−4
x=−2
