Answer:
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 5 = 2x + 5
3x - 5 + 5 = 2x + 5 + 5
3x = 2x + 10
3x - 2x = 2x - 2x + 10
1x = 10
x = 10
Answer:
B) 
Step-by-step explanation:
1. First, we have to know that two negatives equal positive.
2. Given the information above,
can simplify to
.
3. Let's go through each answer choice and see which one also simplifies to
.
A:
B:
Therefore, the answer is B)
.
First we have to distribute the parentheses on the left side, 2*x is 2x and 2*-3 is -6, so now the equation is 4x+2x-6 = 8x+12
Then, we can add together the two x's on the left side,
so now we have 6x-6 = 8x+12 Subtract 12 from both sides and
you get 6x -18 = 8x Then you can subtract 6x from both the sides and get
-18 = 2x Now we can divide both sides by 2, and the final answer is -9 = x
Since they are not the same and the two sides aren't unequal, there is one solution(:

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
you have a total of 5+7+4=16 marbles in the box.
