Combine like terms
8x+24=x+5
subtract x from both sides
8x+24=x+5
-x -x
7x+24=5
subtract 24 from both sides
7x+24=5
-24 -24
7x = -19
divide 7 from both sides
7x = -19
7x/7 = -19/7
x= -19/7
Answer:
son 14
Step-by-step explanation:
por que solo se resta para saber el numero de niños
9x - 4(x - 2) =x + 20
We move all terms to the left:
- 9x -4(x - 2) - (x + 20) = 0
Multiply
- 9x - 4x -(x + 20) + 8 = 0
We get rid of the parentheses.
We add all the numbers and all the variables.
We move all terms containing x to the left hand side, all other terms to the right hand side
It mean that everything is goin down and that there isnt anything interfering with it
