Answer:

x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the equation:

-2(-x-4)+3=-7-4x

First, distribute the left side:

-2(-x)-2(-4)+3=-7-4x\\2x+8+3=-7-4x

Add values on the left side:

2x+11=-7-4x

Add 7 to both sides. The right side cancels:

(2x+11)+7=(-7-4x)+7\\2x+18=-4x

Subtract 2x from both sides. The left side cancels:

(2x+18)-2x=(-4x)-2x\\18=-6x

Divide both sides by -6:

(-6x)/-6=18/-6\\x=-3

Therefore, x equals -3.

Answer:

x =  - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

- 2( - x - 4) + 3 =  - 7 - 4x

to \: get \: rid \: of \: the \: parenheses \:  \\ distribute \: two \: through \: the \: parentheses

2x + 8 + 3 =  - 7 - 4x

add \: the \: numbers \\  \\2x + 8 + 3 =  - 7 - 4x \\  \\ 2x + 11 =  - 7 - 4x \\  \\ move \:  - 4x \: to \: the \: left - hand \: side \: and\: change \: its \: sign \\  \\ 2x + 4x + 11 = - 7 \\  \\ move \: constant \: to \: the \: right - hand \: side \: and \: change \: its \: sign \\  \\ 2x + 4x =  - 7 - 11 \\  \\ 6x =  - 18 \\  \\ x =  - 3 \\  \\  \\ hope \: this \: helps \:

32. The debate team plans to make and sell trail
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The first equation has to be the ratio of raisins to sunflower seeds. If r is raisins and p is sunflower seeds and there are 3 times as many raisins as sunflower seeds then the first equation must be 3r=p

The second equation should model the prices properly. Raisins are 1.5 per pound and sunflower seeds are 4 per pound, because of this we should have 1.5r (r being each pound of raisins) and 4p (p being each pound of sunflower seeds). From this we know the second equation must be 4p+1.5r=34

(x - 2)(x² + 2x + 4) = 0​
Ber [7]

We have to find the value of x from the given equation.

  • (x - 2)(x² - 2x + 2) = 0 is a quadratic equation, so it will have two values.

Step: Write the equation in simplest form.

  • (x - 2)(x² - 2x + 1) = 0

Step: Solve the problem by spiltting method.

  • (x-2)(x² - x -x + 1) = 0
  • (x - 2)(x²-x - x + 1) = 0
  • (x - 2) [x(x - 1) -1(x -1)]
  • (x - 2)[(x-1)(x-1)]

Step: Solve the problem with using algebraic formula.

{x-1](x-1)

Step : We have used a²-b² to solve the problem.

(x-2)(x² - x -x + 1) = 0

(x - 2)(x²-x - x + 1) = 0

(x - 2) [x(x - 1) -1(x -1)]

(x - 2)[(x-1)(x-1)]

Therefore, the possible factorization is (x - 2)[(x-1)(x-1)].
