Simplify the first numerator first
-2(x+1)
-2x-2
Then you can set up an equation using cross multiplication
5(-2x-2)= 3x
Simplify and solve
-10x-10=3x
-10=13x
-10/13=x
Final answer: x=-10/13
Answer:
the answer is D :))) hope you pass this
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3> a) [ -6 +22 – 6 + 8 ] ÷ ( -9 )</h3>
[ -6 +22 – 6 + 8 ] = 18
18 ÷ (-9) = -2
<h3> b) 400 ÷ { 40 – (-2) -3 – ( -1)} </h3>
{40 – (-2) -3 – ( -1)} = { 40 + 2 -3 + 1} = 40
400 ÷ 40 = 10
<h3>c) 40 x -23 + 40 x -17 </h3>
(40 x 23) + (40 x -17)
920 + (-680)
= 240
<h3>d) 1673 x 99 – (-1673) </h3>
(1673 x 99) + 1673
1673 x 100
= 167300
<h3>e) 490 x 98 = 48020</h3>
Hope this helps ^-^
