Question

What is the next step in solving the equation 10x+5 = -4x+47 for x after we have combined x variables to one side of the equation?
a. Once x variables have been combined we need to combine non-x variables by moving them to the other side of the equal sign.

b. Once x variables have been combined we need to divide the remaining numbers by our new x variable from combining it in step 1.

c. Since we have combined the x variables together we have completed the necessary steps to solve the equation and have the answer.

d. The problem cannot be solved for x.

Answer 1

Answer: A) Once x variables have been combined we need to combine non-x variables by moving them to the other side of the equal sign
