We have ax - bx = 1;
Then (a - b)x = 1;
If a - b is not 0, then x = 1 / (a-b);
Answer:
y = 1.44
Step-by-step explanation:
What are you aiming to do here? Please share all instructions with each problem.
If you want to solve 4.5/y = 12.5/4 for y: Multiply both sides by 4y:
18 = 12.5y. Then y = 1.44
Step-by-step explanation:
distribute the -2 to (x+1) you end up with -2x-2=8 (multiplication property). Add 2 to both sides to get rid of the -2 of the left (addition property). 8+2=10. -2x=10 divide the -2 to both sides. x=-5 (division property).
