When you expand the equation, you will have
9x + 9=25 + x
Next you have to collect like terms
+x will go over the equality sign to become -x. The same applies to +9
9x - x=23 - 9
9x minus x is 8x
8x=14
Divide both sides by 8
x=14/8
You will have 1 6/8
6 is the remainder while 1 is the number of times 8 divided 14.
In decimal, it will be 1.75
Hope that helped. Good luck
Answer:
a = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
a + 2 = 6
Subtract 2 from both sides
a + 2 - 2 = 6 - 2
a = 4
3(5+7) is the problem you are looking at. To figure it out, you can use properties. On the right side of the equals sign, it shows a property you can use to do the problem. In this case, they are distributing.
Answer:
40
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the ratio 5:3 to answer the question.
5 = made free throws
3 = missed free throws
If she misses 24 free throws, compare the ratios 5:3 to x:24 (you are solving for x)
24 divided by 3 is 8, so multiply 5 by 8
You would get 40
