The slope would be 0. hope this is helpful!
-10x+7x=-3x
3x+1=37
(-1) (-1)
3x=36
(Divide by 3 each side)
3x divided by 3= x
36 divided by 3 = 6
Answer: x=6
Step 1:
The variable is the number of weeks needed to equalize Alexa and her sisters savings.
Step 2:
7x + 60 = 5x + 120
Step 3:
7x+60=5x+120
Subtract 60 from both sides.
7x+(60-60)=5x+(120-60)
7x=5x+60
Subtract 5x from both sides
7x-5x=5x+60-5x
2x=60
Divide both sides by 2.
2x/2 = 60/2
x=30
Step 4:
7(30) + 60 = 5(30)+ 120
210+60=150+120
270 = 270
Step 5:
To find the unknown amount of weeks, you need to rewrite the equation isolate x on the left-hand side of the equation. I just subtracting/simplified the equation until I could solve it.
