1 and 146
2 and 73
and that's about it
Step-by-step explanation:
well, it is supposed to be -3.
but you are right. something is wrong or missing here.
5x + 3 = 4x
x + 3 = 0
x = -3
maybe a "+ 1" is missing on the right side ?
5x + 3 = 4x + 1
gives us
x = -2
The first one I believe is five because it says ten times as many as ___________ is fifty so you take five times ten you get fifty.
Use the foil method
FIRST
OUTER
INNER
LAST
9x by 5x
9x by -7
-12 by 5x
-7 by -12
Then add and subtract like terms to get the answer.
