Answer:
x = - 3 / 2 ( in decimal form = - 1.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
9(x - 1) - 8x = -3(x + 5)
left side: 9(x - 1) - 8x
Expand... 9x - 9 - 8x
= (9x - 8x) - 9
= 1x - 9 or <em>x - 9</em>
right side: -3(x + 5)
Expand... <em>-3x - 15</em>
combine :
x - 9 = -3x - 15
Add 9 to both sides to get x alone
x - 9 + 9 = -3x - 15 + 9
x = -3x - 15 + 9
x = -3x - 6
Add 3x to both sides
x + 3x = -3x - 6 + 3x
simplified, 4x = -6
Now divided 4 from both sides
4x / 4 = -6 / 4
simplify, x = -6 / 4
You can reduce the fraction by dividing it by 2
(-6 / 2) / (4 / 2) = -3 / 2

Answer:
<h3>The answer is 7/12.</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the terms in the bracket first
That's find the LCM of the ones which are subtracting
LCM of 3 and 4 is 12
That's

Next multiply the other terms in the other bracket
That's

Add both results
That's

Find the LCM
The LCM is 12
We get the final answer as

1) Let's convert it to kilometers, using for that a Rule of three
1 mile ---------- 1.600 km
3 -----------------x
2) Multiplying it crossed
3*1.600=1x
4800=x
x = 48
Y axis is counting by 2's
it started at 2 and went up to 6
Y = 4
X axis is counting by 2'2
starts at one goes to 3
X = 2
Slope is 4/2 because rise over run
4/2 = 2
Slope is simplified to 2.
