Answer:
x=7
Step-by-step explanation:
HI + IJ = HJ
3x-5 + x-1 = 7x-27
Combine like terms
4x-6 = 7x-27
Subtract 4x from each side
4x-6 -4x= 7x-27-4x
-6 = 3x-27
Add 27 to each side
-6+27 = 3x-27+27
21 = 3x
Divide by 3
21/3 = 3x/3
7 =x
You are able to divide or mutiply both so let's divide. Divide each by four to get1/2. hope this helped.
100, how ever many zeros are in front of the number just count those and you'll get your answer
