Hi there!

Here is the step by step solving :

-19 = 5(x + 9)

Distribute the 5 to the entire parentheses

5 × x = 5x

5 × 9 = 45

-19 = 5x + 45

Subtract 45 from each side of the equation

-64 = 5x

Divide each side of the equation by 5

-64/5 = x

So your answer is : A. x = -64/5

There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's aything just let me know! :)

What is the value of x in the linear equation below?<br><br><br> 4+3x-ax=9-7x+bx

Furkat [3]

Answer:

x = 5/(10 - a - b)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

4 + 3 x - a x = 9 - 7 x + b x

Collect in terms of x:

x (3 - a) + 4 = 9 - 7 x + b x

Collect in terms of x:

x (3 - a) + 4 = x (b - 7) + 9

Subtract (b - 7) x + 4 from both sides:

x (10 - a - b) = 5

Divide both sides by 10 - a - b:

Answer: x = 5/(10 - a - b)
