Step 1. Simplify
7x^2 - 8x - 4 - 2x^2 + 3x + 5 + 5x^2 - 10x - 8
Step 2. Collect like terms
(7x^2 - 2x^2 + 5x^2) + (-8x + 3x - 10x) + (-4 + 5 - 8)
Step 3. Simplify
10x^2 - 15x - 7
Answer:
j = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
-13j - 20 = -8j + 20
Add 13 j to each side
-13j+13j - 20 = -8j+13j + 20
-20 = 5j+20
subtract 20 from each side
-20-20 = 5j +20-20
-40 = 5j
Divide by 5
-40/5 = =5j/5
-8 =j
