2x-7=29
"Seven less than" => minus 7.
"Two times <u>a number</u>" => 2x (x is the unknown number)
"is twenty-nine" => =29
Putting it all together,
-7 + 2x = 29
or
2x-7=29
(if you were wondering x is equal to 18)
Yes is A and the solution is that when you add negatives it restart number like 3x - - 3= 0
Answer:
x=25/23
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
−23x+37=12
Step 1: Subtract 37 from both sides.
−23x+37−37=12−37
−23x=−25
Step 2: Divide both sides by -23.
x=25/23
Answer:
A) year 1 to year 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The increases in speed are found by subtracting the speed from the year before.
1 to 2: 46 -38 = 8
2 to 3: 52 -46 = 6
3 to 4: 57 -52 = 5
4 to 5: 61 -57 = 4
The greatest increase was from year 1 to year 2.
Cross multiply to solve
(-3r)(4)=(-27)(2)
Multiply on both sides
-12r=-54
Divide both sides by -12
r=4.5
Final answer: r=4.5
Check:
-3(4.5)= -13.5
-13.5/2= -6.75
-27/4=-6.75
