A midpoint divides a line into two equal parts so
5x+17=8x-31
17=3x-31
3x=48
x=16

RS=5x(16)+17
80+17=97
RS=97

Solve for x: 3-x = 3(6x-9). Describe the process used to solve the equation and show each step.
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

x=1.578

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is 3-x = 3(6x-9)

We need to find the value of x

3-x = 3(6x-9)

Distribute 3 in the right-hand side  

3-x=18x-27

Add both sides x

3-x+x=18x+x-27\\3=19x-27

Now, add both sides 27

3+27=19x-27+27\\30=19x

Divide both sides by 19

\frac{30}{19}=\frac{19x}{19}\\x=1.578

So, x=1.578
