Subtract 9x from 23x yields 14x. This was done by subtracting algebraically the variables.
16 pints to gallons equals 2 gallons.
First of all, the first power of 'x' is the highest power in the whole equation,
so we only expect one solution.
You said that <span><u>3x+9 = 21+7x </u>
Subtract 3x from each side:
9 = 21 + 4x
Subtract 21 from each side:
-12 = 4x
Divide each side by 4 :
<u>-3 = x </u>

Answer:
the interest gathered on the loan is $250
Step-by-step explanation:
5% interest on $5,000 for one year would be $250
the total amount wlike be $5250 but the question seems to only ask for the interest
convert 5% to a decimal to multiply to find interest
0.05•5000 gives us the interest for the year
hope this helps <3
