Answer and explanation:
<em>To solve this, you must find what x equals</em>
x + 2x + 7 = 3x - 7 <em>Add together any numbers that can be added on their side</em>
3x + 7 = 3x - 7 <em>Then subtract 7 from both sides to get 3x alone</em>
3x = 3x - 14 <em> Then subtract 3x from both sides to get x</em>
<h3><em>*The x's cancel each other out so you must have typed the equation wrong. Please check to see any mistakes you may have made*</em></h3>
T) -7x+10y=20. M) -3x+y=-2 - ,
2(8x-5y)=35(2) -1(x+y)=-6(-)
-7x+10y=20. -3x+y=-2
16x-10y=70. -x-y=6
9x=90. -4x=4
[x=10] [x= -1]
-7(10)+10y=20. -3(-1)+y=-2
-70+10y=20. 3+y=-2
10y=90. [y= -5]
[y=9]
3/4 tons = 1500 lbs/pounds
The answer is 7/5. I attached the work below.
