Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

-6x - 29 = 5x - 7​

Add -6x to both sides

-29 = 11x - 7

Add 7 on both sides

-22 = 11x

Divide

\frac{-22}{11} = \frac{11x}{11}

x = -2

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>move the terms</u>

<h2>-6x -5x = -7 + 29</h2>

<u>collect like terms</u>

-11x = 22

<u>divide both sides of the equation by -11</u>

<h2>x = -2</h2><h2></h2><h2 />

together, jason and mara have $74. jason has $6 more than 1/3 as much money as Mara has. how much does each person have?
alina1380 [7]
Make an equation system based on the problem
<span>Jason and Mara have $74
</span>⇒ j + m = 74
<span> Jason has $6 more than 1/3 as much money as Mara has
</span>⇒ j = (1/3)m + 6
<span>
Then, solve the equation by subtitution
j + m = 74
(1/3)m + 6 + m = 74
(1/3)m + m = 74 - 6
(1/3)m + (3/3)m = 68
(4/3)m = 68
m = 68 </span>÷ 4/3
m = 68 × 3/4
m = 51
Mara has $51

j + m = 74
j + 51 = 74
j = 74 - 51
j = 23
Jason has $23

Solve the system and enter the smallest x-coordinate first
ankoles [38]
Answer:
(2,-3)(6,5)
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use substitution to get the equation: x^2-6x+5 = 2x-7
Solve:
x^2-6x+5 = 2x-7
x^2 = 8x-12
x^2-8x+12 = 0 (we now have a polynomial)
(x-6)(x-2) = 0 (set each equation to equal 0 and solve)
x-6 = 0 --> x=6
x-2 = 0 --> x=2
To get the Y coordinates:
y=2(2)-7 --> y = -3
y = 2(6)-7 --> y = 5

Check work:
5 = 6^2-6(6)+5 --> 5 = 36-36 +5 --> 5=5
-3 = 2^2-6(2)+5 --> -3 = 4-12+5 --> -3=-3
