Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

<em><u>Reorder the terms: </u></em>

-5 + 7x = 25 + -8x

<u><em>Add '8x' to each side of the equation:</em></u>

-5 + (7x + 8x) = 25 + (-8x + 8x)

<em><u>Combine like terms: 7x + 8x = 15x</u></em> :

-5 + 15x = 25 + -8x + 8x

<em><u>Combine like terms: -8x + 8x = 0 </u></em>

-5 + 15x = 25 + 0

-5 + 15x = 25

<em><u>Combine like terms: 25 + 5 = 30 :</u></em>

15x = 30

<em><u>Divide each side by '15':</u></em>

<u>x = 2</u>

Ms. Johnson asked her class to write an equivalent expression to
dimulka [17.4K]
No one got the correct answer. The answer is supposed to be 7(2d+3k-dk-1). All the coefficients are divisible by 7, thus only the integers are changed. However, the variables cannot be a factor because they do not have the same variables that all the coefficients must have.

tigry1 [53]

(8/9)^2 is just 8/9 squared, or 8/9 * 8/9. This is 64/81, and cannot be reduced. This is therefore our answer.
