What is the value of x if 5x + 45 = 35? <br> Select one:<br><br> 10<br><br> -2<br><br> -10<br><br> 2
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

x= -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying 5x + 45 = 35 Reorder the terms: 45 + 5x = 35 Solving 45 + 5x = 35 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-45' to each side of the equation. 45 + -45 + 5x = 35 + -45 Combine like terms: 45 + -45 = 0 0 + 5x = 35 + -45 5x = 35 + -45 Combine like terms: 35 + -45 = -10 5x = -10 Divide each side by '5'. x = -2 Simplifying x = -2

Suppose that y varies directly as x and y = -9 when x = 3. find the value of x when y = 18.
Doss [256]
Direct proportionality
y/x=k
-9/3=k
k=-3
so when y=18
18/x=3
cross multiply
3x=18
divide both sides by 3
3x=18
x=6
