x= −29/4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
−7(x+2)=−3(x−5)
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
−7(x+2)=−3(x−5)
(−7)(x)+(−7)(2)=(−3)(x)+(−3)(−5)(Distribute)
−7x+−14=−3x+15
−7x−14=−3x+15
Step 2: Add 3x to both sides.
−7x−14+3x=−3x+15+3x
−4x−14=15
Step 3: Add 14 to both sides.
−4x−14+14=15+14
−4x=29
Step 4: Divide both sides by -4.
−4x −4
x=29/−4
x= −29/4
Answer: I would think 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
If there are 10 large fish and half are red that would mean there is a 5/10 chance of getting a red fish from the large fish.. because there are 15 fish in total you would do 5/15 because there are 15 and 10 of those fish are large and 5 of the large fish are red. And 5/15 to its simplest form is 1/3! If this is right please give brainlist!
First of all you have to make them equal to each other. What I mean is the following
3x+20=2x+40
Then you should just solve for x

Answer:
x = 
y = 24
Step-by-step explanation:
-3x - 8y = 20 .... (1)
-5x + y = 19 .... (2)
What we can do is take the (2) equation
-5x + y = 19
and solve for y by adding 5x to both sides
y = 24
now that we have y we substitute it in for y in equation (1)
-3x - 8(24) = 20
-3x - 192 = 20
we want to solve for x so we need to get its self.
add 192 to both sides
-3x = 212
now we divide both sides by -3. It's going to be a fraction.
x =
