Answer:

x=-11

Step-by-step explanation:

the (x+14) line is half of the (17+x) line, so in order to solve this we would have to set it up like this:

2(x+14)=17+x

distribute

2x+28=17+x

x=-11

0.5s +1=7 + 4.5s<br> S =

kvv77 [185]

Answer:

$s = -\frac{3}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for the value of $s$ :

$0.5s + 1 = 7 + 4.5s$

-Combine both $0.5s$ and $4.5s$ by subtracting $0.5s$ by $4.5s$ :

$0.5s + 1 - 4.5s = 7 + 4.5s - 4.5s$

$-4s + 1 = 7$

-Subtract $1$ to both sides:

$-4s + 1 - 1 = 7 - 1$

$-4s = 6$

-Divide both sides by $-4$ :

$\frac{-4s}{-4} = \frac{6}{-4}$

$s = -\frac{3}{2}$

So, the value of $s$ is $-\frac{3}{2}$ .
