Answer:

4x - 16

Step-by-step explanation:

X can be any value (I made it 20)

5.5(2)+ 1 - (1.5(2) +17)

11 + 1 - 20

12 -20

-8

4(2) - 16

8 - 16

-8

You better say thanks (from a grade 9 academic student)

Answer:

4x-16

Step-by-step explanation:

5.5x + 1-(1,5x+17)?

When there's a - in front of an expression in parenthesis, cvhangethe sign of each term in the expression.

5.5+1-1.5x-17

Like terms

4x + 1-17

Then boom 4x-16

Ms. Lynch has 21 coins in nickels and dimes.

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:So we know x + y = 21 and 5x +10y = 165 We line them up in columns x + y = 21 5x +10y = 165 To eliminate the x variable, I'll multiply every element in the 1st equation by -5. -5x + -5y = -105 5x + 10y = 165 Now we combine (add) the equations, which eliminates x altogether. 5y = 60 ... y = 12 From there, x + 12 = 21 ... x = 21-12 ... x = 9 You should double check. Do 9 nickles and 12 dimes equal $1.65? A very important thing to remember using this method is to do the same thing to each element in the equation that you change! I hope that helps.

I have a math question it is... what is g - 3/7 = 2/7 ?

stira [4]

g - 3/7 = 2/7 is an equation.

$\displaystyle\bf\\g-\frac{3}{7}=\frac{2}{7}\\ \\g=\frac{2}{7}+\frac{3}{7}=\frac{2+3}{7}=\frac{5}{7}\\\\\boxed{\bf g=\frac{5}{7}}$
