9x=81
X= 9

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

First, combine like terms. Like terms are terms with the same variable as well as the same amount of said variables:

4x - 10 + 5x = 71

(4x + 5x) - 10 = 71

9x - 10 = 71

Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Isolate the variable, x. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

PEMDAS is the order of operations, and stands for:

Parenthesis

Exponents (& Roots)

Multiplications

Divisions

Additions

Subtractions

~

First, add 10 to both sides of the equation:

9x - 10 (+10) = 71 (+10)

9x = 71 + 10

9x = 81

Next, isolate the variable x by dividing 9 from both sides of the equation:

(9x)/9 = (81)/9

x = 81/9 = 9

x = 9 is your answer.

Rolando is 17. In four years, his age will be 3/2 the age of his sister Marisa. How old will Marisa be in three years
Bess [88]
To find the answer, we can first find the age of Rolando in four year:

17+4
=21

We can then proceed to find the current age of Marisa,which is 3/2 of Rolando’s age calculated above:

Let Marisa’s age be y.

3/2 y =21
y = 21 × 2/3
y = 42/3
y = 14

Therefore Marisa is currently 14 years old.

In three years, Marisa would be:

14+3
=17

Therefore, she will be 17 years old.

Hope it helps!
