Solve the linear equation - 7(x + 2) = -3(x - 5) for x
1 answer:
x= −29/4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
−7(x+2)=−3(x−5)
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
−7(x+2)=−3(x−5)
(−7)(x)+(−7)(2)=(−3)(x)+(−3)(−5)(Distribute)
−7x+−14=−3x+15
−7x−14=−3x+15
Step 2: Add 3x to both sides.
−7x−14+3x=−3x+15+3x
−4x−14=15
Step 3: Add 14 to both sides.
−4x−14+14=15+14
−4x=29
Step 4: Divide both sides by -4.
−4x −4
x=29/−4
x= −29/4

1/260 I believe because there are 26 letters and 10 numbers from 0-9 so 26x10=260.
the answer is 6/16. or if u simplify u will get the equivalent fraction or simplified fraction 3/8
45, 90, 27, are all numbers dividible by 9
