Answer:
487=3x-17
487+17=3x-17+17
3x=53
3x/3=53/3
x=168
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok so if you did 156-6 (considering it was 6 more you want to subtract it) and then because the girls was doubled the boys (you are now at 150) you must divide that by 3 which will give you 50. But you need to double it (for girls) which is 100 and then you have 50 left over which is for the boys. Boys=50 girls=106
Answer:
B) -1-6 x +15 = x - 15 +15
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Explanation</u>:-
Given equation is –1 – 6 x = x – 15
<em>By addition property of equality </em>
<em> ⇒ - 1 - 6 x + 15 = x - 15 +15</em>
⇒ - 6 x + 14 = x
subtracting 'x' on both sides ,we get
⇒ - 6 x -x +14 =0
⇒ - 7 x +14 =0
⇒ -7 x = - 14
Dividing '-7' on both sides , we get
x = 2
<em>The solution of given equation is x = 2</em>
