5x-1=3x+5
start collecting like terms
2x=6
divide 2 both sides
x=3
hope this helps !
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok, well the first thing you need to do is make -4/13 have the same numerator as 9/26. Thankfully, 26 is a multiple of 13, so that step is easy:
-4/13 -> -8/26
Then you can add them together with ease.
9/26 + -8/26 = 1/26
Adding a negative number to anything is the same thing as subtracting.
Answer:
x=12
Step-by-step explanation:
you need the x alone so you substract 3 from both sides.
Then you have, -x= -12
You need the x positive so you change the sign for it but as it is an equation you need to do the same thing on the other side, making both sides positive.
x=12
Let x be the current price of the product
1.15 * x = $2..88
So when rearranging the equation, you get:
x = 2.88/1.15 = $2.50 (to the nearest cent)
