Answer:
x= -7
Step by Step Explanation:
We can write them both like functions like this
A= 5x- 4
B= 3x+ 8
The output of A will be three times the output of B
A=3b
We replace with the functions
5x-4= 3
We solve for x
5x= -4= 9x + 24
5x- 9x= 24 + 4
-4x= 28
x= 28 - 4
x= -7
The output that makes the out put of A 3 times the output of B is -7

Answer:
Explanation:
Work backward:
1. 2x + 23 = 30
Start:
Multiply the equation by 2:
Subtract 30 from both sides
- 2x - 30 = 7 - 30
- 2x - 30 = -23
Add 23 and 30 to both sides:
2. 3x + 19.5 = 30
Start:
Add 6.5 to both sides:
Multiply by 3:
Distributive property:
3. (10x - 20)/ 5 = 3
Start:
Multiply by 10:
Subtract 20:
Divide by 5:
Step-by-step explanation:
90+48=138
180-138=42
y=42
