2w + 7 = 2(w + 5) - 8

Mathematics

Answer:

no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

2w + 7 = 2(w + 5) - 8

Distribute

2w+7 = 2w+10-8

Combine like terms

2w+7 = 2w+2

Subtract 2w from each side

7 = 2

This is never true so there is no solution

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

First we use the distributive property to undo the parentheses.

2w+7=2w+10-8

We combine like terms.

2w+7=2w+2

We subtract 2w from both sides.

7=2

Since we lost our variables and this equation is not true, there are no solutions to this equation as there is no possible value for w that can make this true.

Have a wonderful day! :D

I picked up 15 shells and my brother picked up 3 more shells than I did. How many shells did my brother pick up?
Artist 52 [7]
Let you = y
Let your brother = b

y = 15
b = y + 3

Plug in 15 for y

b = 15 + 3
b = 18

Your brother picked up 18 shells.

Hope this helps
