Answer:
3
-2x +5=0
Step-by-step explanation:
Combine liked terms:
3+5x+x-1x+6+2=7x+3
3+6x-1x+8=7x+3
3+5x+8=7x+3
Subtract 3: 3+5x+8-3=7x+3-3
3+5x+5=7x
Now subtract 7x:
3+5x+5-7x=7x-7x
If you want combine liked terms:
3-7x+5x+5=0
3-2x+5=0
Hope this helps!
The answer is -3.
To find this, we simply have to solve the equation and leave only the blank and the parenthesis that it is with on the right side. Then we can divide by the parenthesis. The work for this is done for you below.
____(x - 3) + 2x = -(x - 5) + 4 ----> Distribute the -1 to the parenthesis.
____(x + 3) + 2x = -x + 5 + 4 ----> Simplify
____(x + 3) + 2x = -x + 9 ----> Subtract 2x from both sides
____(x + 3) = -3x + 9 ------> Divide both sides by x + 3
____ = -3.
Since Sarah’s age is 2x of Bob’s age (which is 42) Sarah is 84.
