How would I convert -0.5x-y+5=0 into standard form with there being no coefficient for x?

1 answer:

8 0

First put the equation into standard form by isolating y:
y=-0.5x+5
To convert x to have no coefficients, the coefficient is really 1, so multiplying everything by -2 and you get
-2y=x-10

What does x equal in this equation: 24+3x=3x+3(7-1) Please help this is due tomorrow!

Zinaida [17]

24 + 3x = 3x + 3(7 - 1)

Eliminate the parentheses: 24 + 3x = 3x + 3(6)

 24 + 3x = 3x + 18

Subtract 3x from each side: 24 = 18

Look at that for a second. Can ANY value of 'x' make 24 equal to 18 ?
I don't think so.
There's NO number that makes the equation a true statement.

That's just another way to say: "The equation has NO solution."
