7x-5=5x+23
7x-5x=23+5
2x=28
x=28/2
x=14
Minust 5x both sides
7x-5x<5x-5x-8
2x<-8
divide by 2 both sides
x<-4
If you are trying to create a garden of potted plants, you would find out how much soil each pot needs/holds and multiply that by how many pots you plan to use. then you would go to the store for potting soil, which let’s say came in smaller packs and you need to purchase multiple. use multiplication estimation to estimate how many bags you’d need.
I know this is a dumb example...sorry this is one I remember from my fourth grade math teacher ahah
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for the value of 
:
-Use <u>Distributive Property</u>:
-Take 
and add it to 
:
-Subtract both sides by 
:
-Divide both sides by 
:
Therefore, the value of is 
.
I would say its the second one.
the student shouldve distributed the 2^3x+3 into 2^3x+9
