x = 13
subtract x from both sides of the equation
6 = 2x - x - 7
6 = x - 7
add 7 to both sides
6 + 7 = x ⇒ x = 13
As a check
substitute this value into the equation and if both sides are equal then it is the solution
left side = 13 + 6 = 19
right side = (2 × 13) - 7 = 26 - 7 = 19
hence x = 13 is the solution
Answer:
145% increase
Step-by-step explanation:
343 - 140 = 203
203/140 = 1.45
1.45 x 100 = 145
12 ten dollar bills, t = 12
$630
3 x 50 = 150
18 x 20 = 360
360+150 = 510
$630 - 510
$120
