Answer:

D. subtract 31 from both sides

you cant combine cuz theyre not like terms and you have to undo the constant number before you undo the second term in the equation so you will end up needing to do letter choice D first.

hope this helped a little bit :)

<h3>Answer: D. subtract 31 from both sides</h3>

======================================================

Explanation:

The expression 31-12t is the same as 31+(-12t). Adding a negative is the same as subtracting a positive.

Then we can flip the two terms getting -12t+31. This is because we can add two numbers in any order.

So we're effectively solving -12t+31 = 211

The first step is to subtract 31 from both sides to undo the +31. We follow PEMDAS in reverse to isolate the variable.

500=100(x-1)<br> Someone tell me step by step
Andre45 [30]
First, distribute the 100 to the (x-1) portion:
500 = 100x - 100

then, add 100 to both sides of your equation to get “x” alone on the right side:
500 + 100 = 100x - 100 + 100
600 = 100x

next, divide 100x by 100 and 600 by 100 to isolate a singular “x”:
600/100 = 100x/100
6 = x

therefore, x=6 is your solution

Set up an algebraic equation. This is what it looks like based on what the question tells you:

Let a = area of pentagon
a+27 = 4a-15
3a-15 = 27
3a = 42
a = 14
