Answer:
x = 0.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
(7x + -5) + -1(3x + -2) = 0
Reorder the terms:
(-5 + 7x) + -1(3x + -2) = 0
Remove parenthesis around (-5 + 7x)
-5 + 7x + -1(3x + -2) = 0
Reorder the terms:
-5 + 7x + -1(-2 + 3x) = 0
-5 + 7x + (-2 * -1 + 3x * -1) = 0
-5 + 7x + (2 + -3x) = 0
Reorder the terms:
-5 + 2 + 7x + -3x = 0
Combine like terms: -5 + 2 = -3
-3 + 7x + -3x = 0
Combine like terms: 7x + -3x = 4x
-3 + 4x = 0
Solving
-3 + 4x = 0
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '3' to each side of the equation.
-3 + 3 + 4x = 0 + 3
Combine like terms: -3 + 3 = 0
0 + 4x = 0 + 3
4x = 0 + 3
Combine like terms: 0 + 3 = 3
4x = 3
Divide each side by '4'.
x = 0.75
Simplifying
x = 0.75
Answer:
-17
Step-by-step explanation:
3x-7=4x+10
Add 7 to both sides & simplify
3x-7=4x+10
+7 +7
3x=4x+17
Subtract 4x from both sides & simplify
3x=4x+17
-4x -4x
-x=17
*Negative x equals -1*
Divide both sides by -1 & simplify
Answer:
40/3, 172/3, respectively
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 9 = 2y
2x = 2y + 2
x + 9 = 2(2x - 2)
4x - 4 = x + 9
3x - 13 = 0
x = 13/3
y = 40/6
RT = 13/3 + 9 = 40/3
QS = 160/3 + 4 = 172/3
Answer:
153/50 or 3.06
Step-by-step explanation:
Just convert them into improper fractions and put parenthesis around the numbers with a division symbol in the middle of the two numbers.
Ex. (3/2)*(4/3)
