The goal of this equation is to solve for x. So, we can start by combining like terms.
(16x) and (5x) are like terms, so we would subtract (5x) over to the other side.
131 + 16x -5x = -331 + 5x - 5x
131 + 11x = -331
Then, we can combine the other like terms, which would be (131) and (-331). Subtract 131 on both sides.
131 - 131 + 11x = -331 - 131
11x = -462
Now, we need to divide the number before x, or the coefficient.
11x/11 = -462/11
x = -42
Answer:
since numerator does not change for this equation, just put x+5=30 which is 25
Step-by-step explanation:
It has been 1 hour and 20 minutes.
HOW I FOUND MY ANSWER:
7:10 to 8:10 = 1 hour
8:10 to 8:30 = 20 minutes
(1 hour + 20 minutes = 1 hr and 20 min.)
