X= a number

Twice the sum of a number (x) plus 73 equals 156.

EQUATION:
2(x + 73)= 156

Not sure if you need to solve it too, but here's how to solve:

2(x + 73)= 156
multiply 2 by all in parentheses

(2*x) + (2*73)= 156
2x + 146= 156

subtract 146 from both sides
2x= 10

divide both sides by 2
x= 5

The missing number is 5.

CHECK:
2(x + 73)= 156
2(5 + 73)= 156
2(78)= 156
156= 156

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

(1,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve the system by using substitution.

In order to do this we must make x the subject in the first equation.

We can do this by simply subtract 2y from both sides

x + 2y = -1

subtract 2y from both sides

x + 2y - 2y = -1 - 2y

simplify

x = -2y - 1

now that we have made x the subject in one of the equations we can plug in (or substitute) the value of x into the other equation

2x – 3y = 5

x = -2y - 1

2(-2y - 1) - 3y = 5

We can then solve for y

2(-2y - 1) - 3y = 5

Distribute the 2

-4y - 2 - 3y = 5

combine like terms -4y + -3y

-7y - 2 = 5

add 2 to both sides

-7y = 7

divide both sides by -7

y = -1

Now that we have found the value of y we can plug in the value of y into one of the equations and solve for x

x + 2y = -1

y = - 1

x + 2(-1) = -1

multiply 2 and -1

x + -2 = -1

add 2 to both sides

x = 1

So we have found that x = 1 and y = -1 therefore the solution to the system of equations is (1,-1)

Which is a better deal on a $10 item:
liberstina [14]
50% off. You only have to pay $5. If you do 10% off one time you have to pay $9 and then the next time you get 40% off, you’d have to pay $6.

Unless I completely misunderstood, 50% should be better. If it’s 40% off + 10% then it will be 50% and therefore both of them are equal deals and both good.
