Set the two expressions equal to each other.
7x + 3 = 9x
Simplify, isolate the x, subtract 7x from both sides
7x (-7x) + 3 = 9x (-7x)
3 = 2x
Set the equation = 0, subtract 3 from both sides
3 (-3) = 2x (-3)
0 = 2x - 3
2x - 3, or D, should be your answer
hope this helps
there are 6 terms in the simplified expression
11 you count by 3 with the pizzas and 2 with the side dishes
The answer is 1432 x 54 = 77,328
Answer:
By multiplying each ratio by the second number of the other ratio, you can determine if they are equivalent. Multiply both numbers in the first ratio by the second number of the second ratio. For example, if the ratios are 3:5 and 9:15, multiply 3 by 15 and 5 by 15 to get 45:75.
