Answer:
x=17
Step-by-step explanation:
24-3x=-27
1) Subtract 24 from both sides:
-3x=-51
2) Divide both sides by -3:
x=17
Footnotes:
Don't forget, your goal is to <em>isolate</em> the variable, or get it on one side of the equation
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
3(2x - 8) + 4x = -2(12 - 7x) - 4x
6x - 24 + 4x = - 24 + 14x - 4x
10x + 24 = 24 + 10 x
Answer:
x - a smaller number
(x+1) - a larger number
3(x+1) - 2x = 34
3x + 3 - 2x = 34
x= 31
(x+1) = 32
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
B=1 M=6 D=3
Step-by-step explanation:
the equations are 4M+4D+2B=38
M+D+B=10
2D=M
step two: 4M+4D+2B=38 (multiply 2nd equation by -4)
-4M-4D-4B=-40
4M AND 4D cancels out and your left with -2B=-2 B=1
then you take the first equation and subsitute the third equation for M
step three: M+D+1 =10 (SUBSITUTE B WITH 1)
M+D=9
STEP FOUR: take the last equation (M+D=9) and subsitute 2D=M
2D+D=9
3D=9
D=3
subsitute D=3 into 2D=M so you get 2(3)=M M=6
DOUBLE CHECK USE THE SECOND EQUATION
M+D+B=1-
6+3+1=10
48/100 in simplest form is 12/25
Explanation:
The first step to this problem is to find the GCF (greatest common factor) of 48 and 100, which is 4. Then, we divide 48 by 4 and 100 by 4, which gives us 12 and 25. Now, we get the answer (12/25.)
