Because <span>−8</span><span> does not contain the </span>variable<span> to solve for move it to the other side of the </span>equation<span> by adding </span>8<span> to both sides.
</span><span>5x=8+37
</span>Add 8<span> and </span>37<span> to get </span><span>45.
</span><span>5x=45
</span>Divide<span> each </span>term<span> by 5.
</span>x=<span>9
</span>
x is equal to 9
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
12 - 2x = -2(y - x)
12 - 2x = -2y - (-2x)
12 - 2x = -2y + 2x
12 - 2x - 2x = -2y + 2x - 2x
12 - 4x = -2y
12 - 12 - 4x = -2y - 12
-4x = -2y - 12
-4x/4 = -2y/4 - 12/4
-x = -0.5y - 3
-x/-1 = -0.5y/-1 - 3/-1
x = 0.5y + 3
or
x = 3 + 0.5y
Answer:
y= 3/2x+40
Step-by-step explanation:
y= rise/run+ y-intercept
Answer:225 jeans.
Step-by-step explanation: What we need to do here is convert the number of jeans to a percentage. There were 25 jeans when 50 customers were surveyed and 25 is half of 50 or 50%. This means that if 450 pairs of pants are ordered half of them should be jeans. 450/2 = 225.
