Answer:
x= -2
Step-by-step explanation:
4x + 2 = 6(-2x - 5)
Distribute
4x+2 = -12x-30
Add 12x to each side
4x+2+12x = -12x-30+12x
16x+2 = -30
Subtract 2 from each side
16x+2-2=-30-2
16x = -32
Divide by 16
16x/16x = -32/16
x = -2

Answer:
7 and 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the numbers be a and b.
<u>A positive number is 7 times another number:</u>
<u>If 3 is added to both the numbers then one of the new number becomes 5 by 2 times the other new number:</u>
<u>To solve this we substitute </u><u>a</u><u> with </u><u>7b</u><u> in the second equation:</u>
- 7b + 3 = 5/2 × (b +3) ⇒ multiplying both sides by 2
- 14b + 6 = 5b + 15 ⇒ collecting like terms
- 14b - 5b = 15 - 6
- 9b = 9
- b = 1 ⇒ solved for b
<u>Then, finding a:</u>
- a= 7b
- a=7*1
- a= 7 ⇒ solved for a
<u>So the numbers are</u> 7 and 1
