Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
6x
Discussion:
7x = 7 times x
x = 1 times x
So both terms are "like" terms in x:
7x - x = (7-1)x = 6x
Thank you,
MrB
Answer: y=7,x=3
Steps:
y = 2x + 1
3x + y = 16
Substitute y = 2x + 1
3x + 2x + 1 = 16
Simplify
5x+1=16
Isolate x for 5x + 1 = 16: x = 3
For y = 2x + 1
Substitute x = 3
y = 2 · 3 + 1
Simplify
y = 7
The solutions to the system of equations are:
y = 7, x = 3
Hope This Helps!
Answer: The number is 0.75 or 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
let x = the number.
Now set up an equation: The product of a number (x) and -4 = -4x. So -4x is subtracted from the number - x. x-(-4x)
Then, that equals 3 more than the number (x) = x+3
So the equation is x-(-4x)=x+3.
Then, solve the equation!
x-(-4x)=x+3
x+4x=x+3 (Distribute the negative to the parentheses)
5x=x+3 (Combine like terms)
4x=3 (Get the Xs on one side by subtracting x from both sides)
x=0.75 or 3/4 (divide by the coefficiant, 4, on both sides)
