Answer:
x = - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
- 1.2x + 2.5 = 0.8x + 6.5 ( subtract 0.8x from both sides )
- 2x + 2.5 = 6.5 ( subtract 2.5 from both sides )
- 2x = 4 ( divide both sides by - 2 )
x = - 2
14x - (2x - y) - y
14x + (-1(2x - y)) - y
14x + (-1(2x) - 1(-y)) - y
14x + (-2x + y) - y
14x + 1(-2x + y) - y
14x + 1(-2x) + 1(y) - y
14x - 2x + y - y
14x - 2x
12x
Answer:
no it is not the same.
Step-by-step explanation:
it is not the same because 13/4 is smaller than 3/14. 3 1/4 includes a whole number, and 13/4 doesn't.
