Answer:
x=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
You can substitute the first equation into the second:
-3x+3=5x+19
Add 3x on both sides:
3=8x+19
Subtract 19 on both sides:
-16=8x
Divide 8 on both sides:
x=-2
9514 1404 393
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Where x represents the previous year's salary, its amount this year is said to be ...
x + 2000
The equation is trying to reflect the fact that 7% of that is $3,290. The missing number is 2000:
0.07(x +2000) = 3290
__
Solving for x, we find ...
x = (3290/0.07) -2000 = 45000
Sandra's salary the previous year was $45,000.
14+2x=62 (x=Pass cost)
-14 -14
(2x=48)/2
x=24
6.50+5.75+1.15x=18
12.25+1.15x=18
-12.25 -12.25
1.15x=5.75 divide both sides by 1.15
x=5
------------------------(- K)-------------0-------------(+K)-----------------
K unit to the left of 0, means K is negative.
The opposite of (-K) is (+K), both are symmetric vs. the origin "0", then its location will be +K
