Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
First set up the problem like this:
14x-17 = 8x + 1
Now we subtract 14x from each side. This leaves us with:
-17 = 6x+1
Now we need subtract 1 from each side, leaving us with:
-18 = -6x
And now we divide each side by 6x, leaving us with.
3 = x.
And if you insert three into both of the equations, it will result in 25.
(Hope this helped!)
4(4x + 6) - 7 = 77 - 4x......distribute thru the parenthesis
16x + 24 - 7 = 77 - 4x ...simplify
16x + 17 = 77 - 4x ...addition property of equality....add 4x to both sides
16x + 4x + 17 = 77 ...subtraction property ...subtract 17 from both sides
16x + 4x = 77 - 17...combine like terms
20x = 60 ....division property....divide both sides by 20
x = 60/20
x = 3
88.23%
Simply plug 15/17 into you calculator
and it will give you a decimal, in this case it should be .88235294...
simply move the decimal back to placements and you should have
88.235294... thats still a lot of numbers so just reduce it to 2 places after the decimal and add a percent sign
88.23%
and your done :) this works for any similar problems
I hope this helps
