Simplify both sides of the equation

2-(3x-4)=2x-9

2+-1(3x-4)=2x-9

Distribute the negative sign

2+-1(3x)+(-1)(-4)=2x-9

2+-3x+4=2x-9

2+-3x+4=2x+-9

Combine like terms

(-3x)+(2+4)=2x-9

-3x+6=2x-9

Subtract 2x from both sides

-3x+6-2x=2x-9-2x

-5x+6=-9

Subtract 6 from both sides

-5x+6-6=-9-6

-5x=-15

Divide both sides by -5

-5x/5=-15/-5

x=3


I hope that's help !

First put the -1 into the 3x and -4, so it looks like 2-3x+4=2x-9, then combine 2 and 4, (-3x+6=2x-9), then subtract 2x from both sides (-5x+6=-9) then subtract 6 to both sides so -5x=-15, then divide by 5 so x=3 hope this helps!! sorry i messed up the first time

Una avenida está siendo asfaltada por etapas. En la primera etapa se asfaltó la mitad; en la segunda, la quinta parte, y en la t
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Sabemos que:

L es el largo de la avenida.

En la primer etapa se asfalto la mitad, L/2, entonces lo que queda por asfaltar es:

L - L/2 = L/2.

En la segunda etapa se asfalto la quinta parte, L/5, entonces lo que queda por asfaltar es:

L/2 - L/5 = 5*L/10 - 2*L/10 = (3/10)*L

En la tercer etapa se asfalto la cuarta parte del total, L/4, entonces lo que queda por asfaltar es:

(3/10)*L - L/4 = 12*L/40 - 10L/40 = (2/40)*L

Y sabemos que este ultimo pedazo que queda por asfaltar es de 200m:

(2/40)*L = 200m

L = 200m*(40/2) = 4,000m
