C.) x = -4 is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve the equation we have to isolate x on one side of equation

Given

7x + 6 = -22

Subtracting 6 from both sides

$7x+6-6=-22-6\\7x=-28$

Dividing both sides by 7

$\frac{7x}{7}=\frac{-28}{7}\\x=-4$

Hence,

C.) x = -4 is the correct answer

Answer:

Given that,

R = 3x + 9y

Also, given that,

y = 6

R = 7

We have to find the value of x

For that, you can to put 6 and 7 to the equation instead of y and R respectively.

R = 3x + 9y

7 = 3x + 9 × 6

7 = 3x + 54

7 - 54 = 3x

- 47 = 3x

$\frac{-47}{3} = \frac{3x}{3}$

$\frac{-47}{3}=x$

Hope this helps you :-)

Identify the variable(s), set up your equation(s), and solve. Richard has an elder sister who is twice his age and a younger sis

alexdok [17]

Answer:

7 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Let Richard's age = x

Elder sister's age = 2x

Youngwr sister's age = x - 2

Product of sisters ages = 70

2x * (x - 2) = 70

2x² - 4x = 70

2x² - 4x - 70 = 0

x² - 2x - 35 = 0

x² - 7x + 5x - 35 = 0

x(x - 7) +5(x - 7) = 0

(x - 7) or (x + 5) = 0

x = 7 or x = - 5

X can't be negative

Hence, x = 7

Richard is 7 years
