9*(x-1)=2x-7
First get rid of your parenthesis by distributing.
9x-9=2x-7
Then all you have to do is isolate the variable
9x=2x+2
7x=2
so x= 2/7
Answer: what the heck do you have to answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Here's what i did:
I broke down the fraction entirely.
3 / 5 = 6 / 10
divide 6 by two and divide 18 by two. This makes 3 / 10 = 9.
divide 3 by three and 9 by three, making 1 / 10 = 3.
if you need 7 / 10 of the number (30) then do 3*7.
The answer is 21.
Here’s your answer. Hope this helped!!
Answer:
Numbers are 14 and 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the 2 numbers be x and y.
Write 2 equations:
x + y = 22
x - y = 6
Solve by substitution:
x - y = 6
x = y + 6
Plug into the other equation:
(y + 6) + y = 22
2y + 6 = 22
2y = 16
y = 8
Plug into either equation:
x + 8 = 22
x = 14
Numbers are 14 and 8
