10+2(x)=5(x-7)
10+2(x)=5(x)-35
35+10=5(x)-2(x)
45=3(x)
45/3=x
x=15
Answer:
21 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Each of the distances is the same, so we have ...
5x +4 = 15x -30
34 = 10x
3.4 = x
Then the distances are ...
5(3.4) +4 = 21 . . . . miles
Bert and Ernie each live 21 miles from Big Bird's nest.
4n+7−(7n−8)
=4n+7+−1(7n−8)
=4n+7+−1(7n)+(−1)(−8)
=4n+7+−7n+8
Combine Like Terms
=4n+7+−7n+8
=(4n+−7n)+(7+8)
=−3n+15
The answer is 37/100 as a fraction. Hope this helps you.
