Answer:

x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

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

<em>Distribute the 3 to the x+1</em>

3x+3 +5 = 2x -2

<em>Combine like terms</em>

3x + 8 = 2x -2

<em>Subtract 2x from both sides</em>

x + 8 = -2

<em>Subtract 8 from both sides</em>

x = -10

Hope this helps!

Answer:

x=-10

Step-by-step explanation:

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

Distribute the 3

3(x+1)+ 5=2x- 2 would equal

3x+3+5=2x-2

Combine like terms

3x+3+5=2x-2

3+5=8 So,

3x+8=2x-2

You want to get the numbers with x on one side

Subtract 8 on both sides to get 3x by itself

3x+8-8=2x-2-8

3x=2x-10

Then you have to get the 2x on the other side because you still want x on the other side so you do -2x on both sides

Which gives you

x=-10

That is your answer

30 POINTS!!! PLEASE HURRY!!Which of the following graphs correctly represents x &gt; -1/2
miss Akunina [59]
<h3>Answer: Second graph</h3>

Why? Because we draw a dashed line through x = -1/2 = -0.5 on the horizontal number line (aka x axis). Then we shade to the right of this dashed line. The shaded region represents all points that make the inequality true. For example, the point (0,0) is in the shaded region. It has an x coordinate of x = 0 which is larger than -1/2

Side note: the dashed line says "points on this boundary do not count as solutions". So any point with an x coordinate of -1/2 does not count.

2x-y=-10 y=4 what is the solution
ratelena [41]

Answer:

(- 3, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

given the 2 equations

2x - y = - 10 → (1)

y = 4 → (2)

Substitute y = 4 into (1) and solve for x

2x - 4 = - 10 ( add 4 to both sides )

2x = - 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = - 3

solution is (- 3, 4 )
