Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
R(x) = 6x - 3
S(x) = -3x - 8
<u>Step 2: Find</u>
- Substitute in functions: R(x) - S(x) = 6x - 3 - (-3x - 8)
- [Distributive Property] Distribute negative: R(x) - S(x) = 6x - 3 + 3x + 8
- [Addition] Combine like terms: R(x) - S(x) = 9x + 5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

(8x+20)=18
Simplify: (Show steps)
4x+10=18
Step 2: Subtract 10 from both sides.
4x+10−10=18−10
4x=8
Step 3: Divide both sides by 4.

x=2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The number is 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Twice a number (z) = 2*z = 2z
Twice a number (z) added to 21 = 2z + 21
9 times the number added to 7 = 9z + 7
9z + 7 = 2z + 21
Subtract 2z form both sides
9z - 2z + 7 = 21
7z + 7 = 21
Subtract 7 from both sides
7z = 21 - 7
7z = 14
Divide both sides by 7
z = 14/7
z = 2
