Mathematics

Nadusha1986 [10]3 years ago

Answer:

x = -14/3

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(3x + 8) − 2 = 10

Distribute

-6x -16 -2 =10

Combine like terms

-6x -18 = 10

Add 18 to each side

-6x-18+18 =10+18

-6x =28

Divide each side by -6

-6x/-6 = 28/-6

x = 28/-6

Simplify by dividing top and bottom by 2

x = -14/3

Sum of (x+5) and (2x+3)
olga55 [171]

Answer:

3x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can write the sum into a <em>mathematical expression</em>:

<em>The sum of (x+5) and (2x+3)</em>

<em />

<u>(x+5)+(2x+3)</u>

<u />

<em>However, we do not need the parenthesis. It is unnecesarry here as we are just adding the two parts:</em>

<em />

<u>x+5+2x+3</u>

<u />

Using <em>commutative property</em>, we can rearrange the symbols so that the x's are with each other and the numbers are with each other:

<u>x+2x+5+3</u>

<u />

Now we can <em>simplify</em> the expression:

<u>3x+8</u>

<u />

Hope this helped :)
