Answer:
<h2>x = 2</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
3 - x + 1 = 2 <em>combine like terms</em>
-x + (3 + 1) = 2
-x + 4 = 2 <em>subtract 4 from both sides</em>
-x +4 - 4 = 2 - 4
-x = -2 <em>change the signs</em>
x = 2

Answer: x = -7
Step-by-step explanation:
2(6 + 3x) + 1 = - 5 + 3(x - 1)
(2) (6) + (2) (3x) + 1 = -5 + (3) (x) + (3) (-1)
12 + 6x + 1 = - 5 + 3x + - 1
( 6x ) + ( 12 - 1 ) = ( 3x ) + ( -5 + -3 )
6x + 13 = 3x - 8
6x + 13 - 3x = 3x - 8 - 3x
3x + 13 = -8
3x + 13 - 13 = -8 - 13
3x = -21
3x/3 -21/3
X = -7
Answer:
-2x-3x=4

Answer:
174 people preferred drinking water.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
A total of 450 males and females were surveyed.
203 were males.
Number of females = 450 - 203 = 247 females
247 females were surveyed.
Now, we will find the number of females who prefer water.
Let,
x be that number.
Total number of females = Soda + Iced tea + Lemonade + Water
247 = 28 + 44 + 67 + x
247 = 139 + x
247-139 = x
x = 108
Number of people who prefer water = 108 + 66 = 174
Hence,
174 people preferred drinking water.
