Simplifying
-1x + -1 = 221 + 2x

Reorder the terms:
-1 + -1x = 221 + 2x

Solving
-1 + -1x = 221 + 2x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-2x' to each side of the equation.
-1 + -1x + -2x = 221 + 2x + -2x

Combine like terms: -1x + -2x = -3x
-1 + -3x = 221 + 2x + -2x
Combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0
-1 + -3x = 221 + 0
-1 + -3x = 221

Add '1' to each side of the equation.
-1 + 1 + -3x = 221 + 1

Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0
0 + -3x = 221 + 1
-3x = 221 + 1

Combine like terms: 221 + 1 = 222
-3x = 222

Divide each side by '-3'.
x = -74

Simplifying
x = -74

Answer:

x=

​

=1.500

Step-by-step explanation:

(((7•(x-2))-3x)+5)-((0-2•(5x-4))+4)  = 0

STEP

2

:

Equation at the end of step 2

 ((7 • (x - 2) -  3x) +  5) -  (12 - 10x)  = 0

STEP

3

:

STEP

4

:

Pulling out like terms

4.1     Pull out like factors :

  14x - 21  =   7 • (2x - 3)

Equation at the end of step

4

:

 7 • (2x - 3)  = 0

STEP

5

:

Equations which are never true

5.1      Solve :    7   =  0

This equation has no solution.

A  non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation:

5.2      Solve  :    2x-3 = 0

Add  3  to both sides of the equation :

                     2x = 3

Divide both sides of the equation by 2:

                    x = 3/2 = 1.500

One solution was found :

x = 3/2 = 1.500

Which of the following rational expressions has the domain restrictions X = -6 and x = 1?
Tcecarenko [31]

The domain of the function is possible values of independant varaible such that function is defined or have real values.

So the expression

\frac{(x+2)(x-3)}{(x-1)(x+6)}

is not defined for x = -6 and for x = 1, as expression becomes undefined for this values of x (Denominator becomes 0).

So answer is,

\frac{(x+2)(x-3)}{(x-1)(x+6)}

Option B is correct.

A quiz has thirty questions whose answers can only be correct or incorrect.
satela [25.4K]

Using a system of equations, it is found that Gina got 22 questions correct in the test.

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>

A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.

In this problem, the variables are:

  • Variable x: Number of questions she got correct.
  • Variable y: Number of questions she got wrong.

The test has 30 questions, hence:

x + y = 30 -> y = 30 - x.

She scored 152 points, hence, considering the value of each question:

8x - 3y = 152.

Since y = 30 - x:

8x - 3(30 - x) = 152

11x = 242

x = 242/11

x = 22

Gina got 22 questions correct in the test.
