For this case, the first thing we must do is define a variable.
We have then:
x: unknown number
We now write the equation that models the problem:
From here, we clear the value of x.
We multiply both sides of the equation by 2:
We subtract 30 on both sides of the equation:
Answer:
The value of the unknown number is given by:
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
Y) -8 x -4 = 32
X) -2 x -4 = 8
(<span>5a-5)(2a+2)
= 5a*2a -5*2a + 2*5a - 5*2
= 10a^2 - 10a + 10a - 10
= 10a^2 - 10
The product of the equation is </span>10a^2 - 10
96 books because if you multiply by 2 that’s double of what the first answer was
<h3><u>The first number, x, is equal to 7.</u></h3><h3><u>The second number, y, is equal to 2.</u></h3>
x + 2y = 11
2x + y = 16
We can subtract 2y from both sides of the first equation to get a value for x.
x = 11 - 2y
Because we have a value for x, we can plug it into the second equation.
2(11 - 2y) + y = 16
Distributive property.
22 - 4y + y = 16
Combine like terms.
22 - 3y = 16
Subtract 22 from both sides.
-3y = -6
Divide both sides by -3.
y = 2
Now that we have a value for y, we can plug it into either equation to solve for x.
x + 2(2) = 11
x + 4 = 11
Subtract 4 from both sides.
x = 7
