Answer:

x=35

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Distribute</u>

5(x + 20) = 7x + 30

(5 * x) + (5 * 20) = 7x + 30

5x + 100 = 7x + 30

<u>Step 2:  Subtract 5x from both sides</u>

5x + 100 - 5x = 7x + 30 - 5x

100 = 2x + 30

<u>Step 3:  Subtract 30 from both sides</u>

100 - 30 = 2x + 30 - 30

70 = 2x

<u>Step 4:  Divide both sides by 2</u>

<u />70 / 2 = 2x / 2

35 = x

Answer:  x = 35

Answer: 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

5(x + 20) = 7x + 30

Reorder the terms:

5(20 + x) = 7x + 30

(20 * 5 + x * 5) = 7x + 30

(100 + 5x) = 7x + 30

Reorder the terms:

100 + 5x = 30 + 7x

Solving

100 + 5x = 30 + 7x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-7x' to each side of the equation.

100 + 5x + -7x = 30 + 7x + -7x

Combine like terms: 5x + -7x = -2x

100 + -2x = 30 + 7x + -7x

Combine like terms: 7x + -7x = 0

100 + -2x = 30 + 0

100 + -2x = 30

Add '-100' to each side of the equation.

100 + -100 + -2x = 30 + -100

Combine like terms: 100 + -100 = 0

0 + -2x = 30 + -100

-2x = 30 + -100

Combine like terms: 30 + -100 = -70

-2x = -70

Divide each side by '-2'.

x = 35

Simplifying

x = 35

Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 2 parts of the ratio equals 14 green marbles, then divide to find the value of one part of the ratio.

14 ÷ 2 = 7 ← value of 1 part of the ratio, thus there are 7 blue marbles

Total marbles = 14 + 7 = 21

Write an equation of the line through the given points<br><br><br>(0, 4), (3, 3)​
andre [41]

Hello! :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope=\frac{Y_2-Y_1}{X_2-X_1}=\frac{RISE}{RUN}

\frac{3-4}{3-0}=\frac{-1}{3}=-\frac{1}{3}

<u><em>Therefore, the slope is -1/3.</em></u>

<u><em>-1/3 is the final answer.</em></u>

Hope this helps!

Have a nice day! :)

:D
