Simplify 5x-3-7 to -2x-3
-2x-3=15-x
Add 2x on both sides
−3=15−x+2x
Simplify 15-x+2x to 15+x
−3=15+x
Subtract 15 on both sides
-3-15=x
Simplify -3-15 to -18
-18=x
X=-18

Answer:

<h2>x = -18</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 3 - 7x = 15 - x  \\ collect \: like \: terms \:  \\ 5x - 7x + x = 15 + 3 \\  - x = 18

\frac{ - x}{ - 1}  =  \frac{18}{ - 1}  \\ x =  - 18

Find three numbers such that their sum is 12, the sum of the first, twice the second, and three times the third is 31, and the s
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

a = 3, b = -1, c = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the three numbers be a, b and c.

Equation 1: a + b + c = 12

Equation 2: a + 2b + 3c = 31

Equation 3: 9b + c = 1

Equation 2 - Equation 1:

Equation 4: b + 2c = 19

Equation 3 times by the number 2

Equation 5: 18b + 2c = 2

Equation 5 - Equation 4

17b = -17

b = -1

Substitute into Equation 4:

2c - 1 = 19

2c = 20

c = 10

Substitute into Equation 1:

a + b + c = 12

a - 1 + 10 = 12

a = 3
