Answer:
x = 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
5[3(x + 4) − 2(1 − x)] − x − 15 = 14x + 55
5[3x + 12 - 2 + 2x] - x - 15 = 14x + 55
5[5x + 10] - x - 15 = 14x + 55
25x + 50 - x - 15 = 14x + 55 Now we subtract 14x from both sides:
25x + 50 - x - 15 - 14x = 14x - 14x + 55
10x + 50 - 15 = 55 Now we subtract 50, add 15 to both sides:
10x + 50 - 50 - 15 + 15 = 55 - 50 + 15
10x = 20
x = 2.
40 miles per hour. if you take 60 divided by 1.5(the speed over time) you get 40mph
5.5 ( 8 - x ) + 44 = 104 - 3.5 ( 3x + 24 )
Distribute 5.5 through the parenthesis.
44 - 5.5x + 44 = 104 - 10.5x - 84
Add the numbers.
88 - 5.5x = 20 - 10.5x
Move variable to the left side and change its sign.
88 - 5.5x + 10.5x = 20
-5.5x + 10.5x = 20 -88
Collect like terms.
5x = 20 - 88
Calculate the sum or difference.
5x = - 68
Divide both sides by 5.
x = - 68 / 5
I think it is $60 per day
Answer:
d = 16.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Add -35.5 to both sides of the equation, then simplify.
... d + 35.5 - 35.5 = 52 - 35.5
... d + 0 = 16.5
... d = 16.5

In general, if something unwanted is added, adding the opposite will undo that operation.
