Answer:
When solving a multi step equation, you use PEMDAS (parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, add, subtract), and you also use PEMDAS when solving a multi step inequality. However, inequalities are tricky in the fact that if you multiply or divide by a negative number, you must flip the sign. And while normally there are 1 or 2 solutions to a multi step equation, in the form of x= #, you'll have the same thing, but with an inequality sign (or signs).
A two-step equation is an algebraic equation that takes you two steps to solve. You've solved the equation when you get the variable by itself, with no numbers in front of it, on one side of the equal sign.

Answer:
The measures of the angles are 150° and 30°.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x and y represent the measures of the angles, with x representing the larger angle.
x + y = 180 . . . . . . the two angles are supplementary
x = 90 + 2y . . . . . one is 90° more than twice the other
___
Substituting the expression given by the second equation into the first, we have ...
(90 +2y) +y = 180
3y = 90 . . . . . . . . . . collect terms, subtract 90
y = 30 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of y
x = 180 -y = 150
The measures of the angles are 150° and 30°.
Answer:
9/8 or 1 1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
9/4 - 9/8
Need a common denominator, multiply 9/4 x 2/2
18/8 - 9/8
Subtract the top numbers
18-9 = 9
The eight stays the same
9/8 or 1 1/8
Answer:
2. x = 2 & y = 4
3. x = 4 & y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
2. x + y = 6
2x + y = 8 (multiply the first equation by -1, so you can eliminate the ys)
- x - y = -6
2x + y = 8 (now add the variables together)
x = 2 (plug in x in one of the equations to find out y)
x + y = 6
(2) + y = 6
-2 -2
y = 4
3. 3x + y = 14
x = 2y (plug in x into the first equation and solve it for y)
3(2y) + y = 14
6y + y = 14
7y = 14
y = 2 (plug in y in one of the equations to find out x)
x = 2y
x = 2(2)
x = 4
4. One number (x) is 2 more (+2) than twice (times 2) as large as another. their sum is 17. Find the numbers.
2x + 2 = 17 (solve for x)
-2 -2
2x = 15
x = 7.5
6. 7 (4x + 1) - (x + 6) (start by distributing 7 into the first parenthesis)
(28x + 7) - (x + 6) (do the same to the other parenthesis by distributing -1)
(28x + 7) (-x - 6) (and now just combine like terms)
28x + 7 - x - 6
28x - x + 7 - 6
27x + 1
