Answer:
1: X= 8, 2: 2/5 or 0.4
Step-by-step explanation:
1: 2(2x + 1) + x = x + 2x + 18
5x + 2 = 3x + 18
2x = 16
x = 8
2: 2x + x + 2x = 10 + x
5x = 10 + x
4x = 10
x = 4/10
x = 2/5
x = 0.4
Answer:
x=12, y=18
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
-14
Step-by-step explanation:
Think of it like this-
subtracting a negative is like adding a positive, so all you have to do is add a negative sign to the sum after solving these sort of problems :>
Hope this helps!
Answer:
x = - 2, x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x² - x - 6 = 0
Consider the factors of the constant term (- 6) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 1)
The factors are + 2 and - 3 , since
2 × - 3 = - 6 and 2 - 3 = - 1 , then
(x + 2)(x - 3) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2
x - 3 = 0 ⇒ x = 3
