Question: Where is the y2? Please be more specific!
Answer:
-31
Step-by-step explanation:
(2×x) - (2×5) = (3×x) + (3×7)
2x-10 = 3x+21
2x-3x = 21+10
-x = 31
therefore, x = -31

Answer:
x > 22
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Hey there!</em>
Well to solve,
52 - 3x < -14
we need to single out x
52 - 3x < -14
-52 to both sides
-3x < -66
Divide both sides by -3
x > 22
The < changes to > because the variable number is a - being divided.
<em>Hope this helps :)</em>
"twelve decreased by twice a number" ---> 12 - 2x
"8 times the sum of number and 4" ---> 8(x + 4)
12 - 2x = 8(x + 4)
12 - 2x = 8x + 32 (distributive property)
12 = 10x + 32 (add 2x to both sides)
-20 = 10x (subtract 32 from both sides)
x = -2 (divide both sides by 10)
That's answer.
