Answer:

x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

–2x + 1 – (–7x + 3) = –4 + 3(x – 2)

-2x + 1 + 7x - 3 = -4 + 3x - 6

-2x + 7x - 3x = -4 - 6 - 1 + 3

2x = -8

x = -8/2

x = -4

Answer:

I think the answer is B. The equation has infinitely many solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

4(3x + 4) = 15x + 12 - 3x + 4

*group like terms so 4(3x+4) = 15x - 3x + 12 + 4

*add similar elements 15x - 3x = 12x

*add the numbers 12 + 4 = 16

*Expand to 12x + 16 - 16 = 12x + 16 - 16

*You simplify 12x = 12x

*Subtract 12x from both sides

*Then Simplify which is 0

Which means Both sides are equal to 0

Please help<br><br> -3/4(8n + 12) = 3(n-3)

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

$- \frac{3}{4} (8n + 12) = 3(n - 3)$

$- 3(8n + 12) = 12(n - 3)$

$\cancel{- 3}(8n + 12) = \cancel{12}(n - 3)$

$- (8n + 12) = 4(n - 3)$

$- 8n - 12 = 4n - 12$

$- 8n - 4n = - 12 + 12$

$- 12n = 0$

$n = 0$

Mai, Eric, and Dean served a total of 103 orders on Monday. Mai served 8 more orders than Eric. Dean served 3 times as many orde

mel-nik [20]

Let the number of orders Eric served be x

Eric = x
Mai = x+ 8 [Mai served 8 more than Eric]
Dean = 3x [Dean served 3 times as many as Eric]

Given that the total is 103
x + x + 8 + 3x = 103
5x + 8 = 103
5x = 103 - 8
5x = 95
x = 19

x = 19
x + 8 = 19 + 8 = 27
3x = 19 x 3 = 57

Eric served 19
Mai served 27
Dean served 57
