Answer:

x = -17/26

Step-by-step explanation:

4(7x - 1) = 3(2x + 1) - 4(x + 6)

distribute 4 through the parentheses (do 3 and -4 as well)

28x-4=6x+3-4x-24

collect like terms

28x-4=2x+3-24 --> 28x-4=2x-21

move the variable

28x-2x-4=-21

collect like terms

26x=-21+4 --> 26x=-17

then divide

hope this helps and makes sense! :)

4x - 5= 2(2x - 1) -3
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x.

Distribute the 2.

4x - 5 = 4x - 2 - 3

Combine like terms

4x - 5 = 4x - 5

Add 5, and subtract 4x.

0 = 0

There are infinitely many solutions, meaning any value plugged in for x will result in the equation being true.

charity is four times as old as her daughter. she is also six years younger than her husband. The sum of their ages ten years to
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

36years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let charity present age be x

Charity daughter present age be y

Charity husband present age be z

If the sum of their ages ten years to come is 117, then;

10+x+10+y+10+z = 117

30+x+y+z = 117

x+y+z = 87 ... 1

If charity is four times as old as her daughter, then;

x = 4y

y = x/4 ... 2

If she is also six years younger than her husband, then;

x = z- 6

z = x+6 .. 3

Substitute 2 and 3 into 1;

x + x/4 + (x+6) = 87

Multiply through by 4

4x + x + 4(x+6) = 4(87)

5x+4x+24 = 348

9x = 348 - 24

9x = 324

x = 324/9

x = 36

hence Charity is 36years old today
