Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5x -x + 3x =30, first you combine like terms 5x + 3x-x=30
8x-x =30
8-1=7
7x=30
At the bank, Derek made 7 withdrawals, each in the same amount. His brother, John, made 5 withdrawls, each in the same amount.
Let x be the amount of one of Derek's withdrawals
Each of John's withdrawals was $5 more than each withdrawal that Derek made.
x + 5 is t the amount of one of John's withdrawals
Derek made 7 withdrawals
So amount withdraw 7 times = 7x
John made 5 withdrawals
So amount withdraw 5 times = 5(x+5)
Both Derek and John withdrew the same amount of money in the end
(A) 7x = 5(x+5)
(B) Solve for x
7x = 5x + 25
Subtract 5x from both sides
2x = 25
Divide by 2
x = 12.5
(C) check your solution
we plug in 12.5 for x in 7x= 5x + 25
7(12.5) = 5(12.5) + 25
87.5 = 62.5+ 25
87.5 = 87.5
(D) Each brother withdrawal 87.5 dollars
I know this is not an answer but, I love your handwriting!
It is soooo much neater than mine!

Ugh, these questions.
21x^3y^4 + 15x^2y^2 - 12xy^3
3xy^2 (7x^2y^2 + 5x - 4y)
Clearing up clutter...
3xy² (7x²y² + 5x - 4y)
That's your answer. Thanks for working my brain. ;)
The 4th one, since both values have less than .5 after the decimal
