Answer:
135
Step-by-step explanation:
8x - 7 = 3x + 9
8x - 3x = 9 + 7
5x = 16
x = 16/5 = 3 1/5
Answer:
x=8 x=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
|x-3| -10=-5
Add 10 to each side
|x-3| -10+10=-5+10
|x-3| =5
Now separate into two equations , one positive and one negative
x-3 = 5 x-3 = -5
Add 3 to each side
x-3+3 = 5+3 x-3+3 = -5 +3
x=8 x=-2
<span>3 is to 4 as 12 is to x, or 3/4 = 12/x </span>
