Answer:

x=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x + 1)=2(x - 1)

first u distribute

3x+3=2x-3

now u can either add or subtract 3 from both sides, i am going to add

3x+3+3 =2x-5+5

3x+6 = 2x

now u subtract 3x

3x-3x+5 = 2x-3x

5= -1x

now divide both sides by -1

x=-5

Your friend says the sum of two linear expressions is always linear expressions. Is your friend correct? Explain.
ra1l [238]
Yes, since adding two like variables will always result in the same variable.(i.e. x+x=2x not x^2). Any expression with the highest variable being to the power of 1 (or just x) is ALWAYS a linear expression.

Answer:

check it

Step-by-step explanation:

“Lucynell don’t even know what a hotel is,” the old woman muttered. “Listen here, Mr. Shiftlet,” she said, sliding forward in her chair, “you’d be getting a permanent house and a deep well and the most innocent girl in the world. You don’t need no money. Lemme tell you something: there ain’t any place in the world for a poor disabled friendless drifting man.”

The ugly words settled in Mr. Shiftlet’s head like a group of buzzards in the top of a tree.
