Step-by-step explanation:
10X+ 180= 500
10X= 500-180
10X= 320. .....divine both sides by 10 to solve for X
X = 32.
check
10(32)+180 = 500
320+180 =500
500 =500...confirmed
4(3+x)
This is because 4*3=12 and 4*x is 4x so you get 12+4x which is the original equation
Answer:
x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Distribute</u>
-5(x + 2) = -(-5x + 1) - x
-5x - 10 = 5x - 1 - x
<em>-5x - 10 = 4x - 1</em>
<em />
<u>Step 2: Solve for x</u>
-5x - 10 + 5x = 4x - 1 + 5x
-10 + 1 = 9x - 1 + 1
-9 / 9 = 9x / 9
<em>-1 = x</em>
<em />
Answer: x = -1
Is it 3 miles? From what you wrote, I believe this would be the answer.
