Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
2 + 3(3x - 6) = 5(x - 3) + 15
Expand the parenthesis:
2 + 9x - 18 = 5x - 15 + 15
Simplify:
9x - 16 = 5x
Subtract 5x from both sides:
4x - 16 = 0
Add 16 to both sides:
4x = 16
Divide both sides by 4:
x = 4
Answer:
x= 10
Step-by-step explanation:
1/5 x -2/3 = 4/3
Add 2/3 to each side
1/5x -2/3 +2/3 = 4/3 +2/3
1/5x = 6/3
1/5x = 2
Multiply each side by 5
1/5x * 5 = 2*5
x = 10
First you plug in for x,
2(y-3)+y=12
Then you solve for y
2y-5+y=12
-10y+y=12
-9y=12
-9y/9=12/-9
y=-1.333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333
Answer:
Don't quote me on this but I believe the answer is that he is 8 years old right now if that's what you're looking for
Step-by-step explanation:
8 + 16 = 24
8 × 3 = 24
That's what I thought
We need to have common denominators, so I will multiply 1 1/2 by 4
15/8 + 12/8 + 7/8 = 34/8
