1-(-18)= 19
sense the subtract and negative cancel out, look at it as a plus sign between 1 and 18 so 1+18=19
Step-by-step explanation:
3 more than the value of x
x+3
Answer:
x = -7
Step-by-step explanation:
6/x + 8/x + 5 =3
5x + 14 /x =3
Step 1: Multiply both sides by x.
5x+14=3x
5x+14−3x=3x−3x(Subtract 3x from both sides)
2x+14=0
2x+14−14=0−14(Subtract 14 from both sides)
2x=−14
2x
2
=
−14
2
(Divide both sides by 2)
x=−7
