Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the number. Then
"Triple a number" means 3x
"is the same as" means =
"double the number increased by 5" means 2x + 7
∴ 3x = 2x + 7
Subtract 2x from each side
x = 7
The answer is x = 7.
Check:
3 × 7 = 2 × 7 + 7
21 = 14 + 7
21 = 21
OK.
Answer:
all values stand for 3x+(-5)=19
- 3x-5=19=> 3x=24=> <u>x=8</u>.
Three step requires another step, so it is difficult than two step process.
no, their is no limit to the number of steps it take to solve an equation.
Every number can be described as a sum/difference of two or three numbers.
One scarf=s
One hat=h
2s+h=13
s+2h=14
h=13-2s
(plug that into the other equation)
s+2(13-2s)=14
s+26-4s=14
26-3s=14
-3s=-12
s=4
One hat=$5
One scarf=$4
5+4=9
Price of one hat AND one scarf is $9
