What is the answer (algebra) -(4x + 3x) = 10x - 5

Mathematics
1 answer:
MariettaO [177]3 years ago
5 0

Step-by-step explanation:

-(4x + 3x) = 10x - 5

We would have to multiply the -1 by the 4x and the 3x which is in the bracket.

Though there is no 1 behind the bracket but, behind any bracket there is 1 there even though it's ignored.

So when we multiply -1 by 4x we are going to get;

-4x

And when we multiply -1 by 3x It's going to be;

-3x

We have -3 and -4 because whenever we multiply any positive and negative number the product is negative.

So;

-4x - 3x = 10x - 5

So now, we group like terms;

- 4x - 3x - 10x = -5

So now that we have grouped, we have to add the negative numbers even though there is no addition sign there we would have to add

-17x = -5

So now we divide both sides by;

-17

Which is going to be;

x=

\frac{5}{17}

The price of commodity a is 4500 and increases at the rate of $6 every three months. Commodity b costs $5400 and increases at ra
ivanzaharov [21]
Let x be the months and y be the cost.

Rate of increase of commodity A = 6/3 = $2 per month
Equation:
y = 2x + 4500

Rate of increase of commodity B = 2/4 = $0.5 per month
Equation:
y = 0.5x + 5400

Equating the costs,
2x + 4500 = 0.5x + 5400
1.5x = 900
x = 600 months
x = 600 / 12 = 50 years
