2(x - 2) + 3(x + 1) = 9

2x - 4   + 3x + 3  = 9      <em>distributed the 2 and 3 on the left side</em>

               5x - 1   = 9      <em>added like terms (2x + 3x) and (-4 + 3)</em>

                     5x = 10      <em>added 1 to both sides</em>

                       x  = 2       <em>divided 5 from both sides</em>

Answer: x = 2

The mean of four numbers is 43. What are those four numbers?​
Andrej [43]

Answer:

42,43,43,44

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are four numbers in a list then the middle 2 numbers should be added up and divided up to give the mean. If we are given the mean we can now work backwards to give us:

\frac{x+y}{2} (where x and y are the 2 middle numbers)

We can also see that x and y must be equal as the mean is an integer.

So:

43=\frac{2x}{2}

So x=43 and that is the middle 2 numbers.

I don't exactly know how to explain how i got the other 2 numbers.
