Subtract 7x on both sides of the equal sign (it'll cancel out) then -3=-3 which makes a true statement.
X - the first numberx + 13 - the second number
The equation:
x + x + 13 = 152x + 13 = 15 |-132x = 2 |:2x = 1
x + 13 = 1 + 13 = 14
Answer: 1 and 14
Answer:
Meghan should use positive integers to represent income. Income is money that flows into the business, and it is always positive. The higher the income, the more money a business will have.
On the other hand, expenses must be represented by negative integers. Expenses are money that flows out of a business, and is always negative. The higher the expenses, the less money the business will have. Expenses reduce a business's net income.
