3x - 15 = 39
+ 15 +15
3x = 54 (divide by 3 on each side)
X = 18
Answer: 9
Step-by-step explanation: Here, we have the expression <em>4x - 7</em> and we want to evaluate the expression when <em>x</em> is equal to 4.
To evaluate an expression, we simply plug the value
of the variable into the expression and solve.
So here, since <em>x</em> is equal to 4, we have 4(4) - 7.
4(4) is equal to 16.
So we have 16 - 7 which is equal to 9.
So the value of our expression when <em>x</em> is equal to 4 is 9.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
⅓x + 7 = -2
isolate the x term by subtracting 7 from both sides
⅓x = -9
Multiply both sides by 3
x = -27
