3( x - 1 ) = 2 x + 5
 
Expand 3(x-1) :

3*x - 3 x 1 

3 x - 3 = 2 x + 5

Add 3 both sides :

3 x - 3 + 3 = 2 x + 5 + 3

3 x = 2 x + 8

3x - 2 x = 8

x = 8

6x=3(x - 4) - x plzz
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

<h2>x = - 3</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

6x=3(x - 4) - x

<u>Multiply the terms in the bracket</u>

That's

6x = 3x - 12 - x \\ 6x = 2x - 12

Subtract 2x from both sides of the <u>equation</u>

6x - 2x = 2x - 2x - 12 \\ 4x =  - 12

<u>Divide both sides by 4</u>

\frac{4x}{4}  =  -  \frac{12}{4}

We have the final answer as

<h3>x = - 3</h3>

Hope this helps you

If aſc and a +b = C, prove that a|b.
mars1129 [50]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

a + b = c

and a|c

i.e. a divides c.

We need to prove that a|b.

⇒ a = mb for some integer m

Since a|c,

So, mathematically, it is expressed as

c= ka

Now, we put the above value in a + b = c.

So, it becomes,

a+b=c\\\\a+b=ka\\\\b=ka-a\\\\b=a(k-1)\\\\\implies a|b

a=mb, here, m = k-1

Hence, proved.
