Answer:
-2x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
3 + 7x - (2 + 9x)
Distribute the negative:
3 + 7x - 2 - 9x
Combine like terms:
-2x + 1
Answer:
x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write equation
9 - 2x = 7x
Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>
<u>Add 2x on both sides:</u> 9 = 9x
<u>Divide both sides by 9:</u> x = 1
Step 3: Check
<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>
9 - 2(1) = 7(1)
9 - 2 = 7
7 = 7
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Your mistake was in this part 9 x 1/100 . After the decimal point the place value starts with tenths so you should write 9 x 1/10 .
Place values
Before the decimal
point
3 ones = 3 x 1
0 tens = 0 x 10
1 hundreds = 1 x 100
After the decimal
point
9 tenths = 9 x 1/10
0 hundredths = 0 x 1/100
3 thousandths= 3 x 1/1000
1 x 100 + 0 x 10 + 3 x 1 + 9 x 1/10 + 0 x 1/100 + 3 x 1/1000
100 + 0 + 3 + 0.9 + 0 + 0.003
100 + 3 +
0.9 + 0.003 = 103.903

The additive inverse of a number is that number with its sign changed.
The additive inverse of 5/8 is -5/8, so that is the value of <em>m</em>.
The sum of a number and its additive inverse is <em>zero</em>. (This is actually the definition of <em>additive inverse</em>.)
5/8 is found at 5/8 on the number line.
m is found at -5/8 on the number line.
"sum" is found at 0 on the number line.
