Hi there! With equations like this we want to get our variable on one side and and our constant on the other.
So with 2x + 3 = -7 you'd subtract the constant 3 from both sides of the equal sign to get 2x = -10, then you'd divide both sides by 2 to get x = -5. If you double check your work by replacing x in the original equation with our answer we'd find that 2(-5) + 3 = -7 is correct.
Hope you find this helpful :)
The intersection of the steps is just a fancy way of asking wi\hich numbers are in both equations so lets look and see :)
The 1st = 0...1...5...7...8
The 2nd =0........5...7........9
Answer = D {0, 5, 7}
Hope this helps have any questions let me know :)
<h3><u>The value of the smaller number is 31.</u></h3><h3><u>The value of the larger number is 43.</u></h3>
y = 12 + x
y + x = 74
Since we have a value for y, we can plug it into the second equation
12 + x + x = 74
Subtract 12 from both sides.
x + x = 62
Combine like terms.
2x = 62
Divide both sides by 2.
x = 31
Now that we have a value of x, we can plug it into the original equation to get a value for y.
y = 12 + 31
y = 43
Answer:
c = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
- 6 + 2c = 3c -(6+5)
-6 + 2c = 3c -11
-6 + 11 = 3c- 2c
5 = c
7+5(p-p)=7
because 7+5p-5p=7
cross our the 5p because 5p-5p is 0
7=7
