Simplify 7x + 2y = -23
Solving
7x + 2y = -23
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-2y' to each side of the equation.
7x + 2y + -2y = -23 + -2y
Combine like terms: 2y + -2y = 0
7x + 0 = -23 + -2y
7x = -23 + -2y
Divide each side by '7'.
x = -3.285714286 + -0.2857142857y
Simplifying
x = -3.285714286 + -0.2857142857y
a) substitution (refer to statements 1 and 2)
b) definition of supplementary
c) subtraction property of equality
4•4=16
12•5=60. That’s the answer
Answer:
Inequality
Step-by-step explanation:
There are an infinite number of quantities less than 6 (5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0, -1, -2, -3...) so it is much easier to write an inequality
