Answer:
-7
Step-by-step explanation:
You divide -3 on both sides to get the variable by itself, so -3 divided by 21 is -7
Answer:
Pierre has enough boards and nails to make 9 tables and 5 chairs.
Step-by-step explanation:
13T+8C ≤ 220
Let us substitute 9 for T and 5 for C and check.
13(9) + 8(5) = 117 + 40
= 157 < 220
So, 220 wooden boards are sufficient to make 9 tables and 5 chairs.
48T+37C ≤ 760
Substitute 9 for T and 5 for C.
48(9)+37(5) = 432 + 185
= 617 < 760
So, 760 nails are sufficient to make 9 tables and 5 chairs.
Hence, Pierre has enough boards and nails to make 9 tables and 5 chairs.
Answer:
-5
Step-by-step explanation:
3x+7=-8
3x+7-7=-8-7
3x=-15
3x/3=-15/3
x= -5
Simplifying
8x + -10 = 62
Reorder the terms:
-10 + 8x = 62
Solving
-10 + 8x = 62
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '10' to each side of the equation.
-10 + 10 + 8x = 62 + 10
Combine like terms: -10 + 10 = 0
0 + 8x = 62 + 10
8x = 62 + 10
Combine like terms: 62 + 10 = 72
8x = 72
Divide each side by '8'.
x = 9
Simplifying
x = 9
