Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(2x - 3) = -6x + 10   <- first, distribute the -2

-4x +6 = -6x + 10       <- subtract (the goal is to get the x's alone on one side)

      -6            -6

-4x = -6x + 4             <- add      

+6x   +6x

2x = 4                       <- divide by 2 to get the value of one x

2x/2 = 4/2

x = 2          

Hope this helps :)

Which expressions are equivalent to 7 (negative three-fourths x minus 3)? Select two options.
polet [3.4K]

<em><u>The equivalent expressions are:</u></em>

7(-\frac{3}{4}x - 3) = (7 \times \frac{-3}{4}x) + (7 \times -3)\\\\7(-\frac{3}{4}x - 3) = \frac{-21x}{4} - 21

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>Given expression is:</u></em>

7(-\frac{3}{4}x - 3)

We have to find the equivalent expressions

By distributive property,

a(b + c) = ab + ac

Therefore,

7(-\frac{3}{4}x - 3) = (7 \times \frac{-3}{4}x) + (7 \times -3)\\\\7(-\frac{3}{4}x - 3) = \frac{-21x}{4} - 21

Thus equivalent expressions are found

Which expressions are equivalent to -2(5x-1)+7(5x-1)-3(-5x+1)
blondinia [14]

Answer:

x=1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question we will have to open the bracket first

So let's go back to the given question

-2(5x-1)+7(5x-1)-3(-5x+1)

We can actually equate the equation to zero

Let's solve

-10x+2+35x-7+15x-3=0

Let's collect like terms

-10x+35x+15x=-2+7+3

40x=8

Let's make x the subject of formula by dividing both sides by 40

x=1/5

So the final answer is 1/5

Why is - x &lt; 3 equivalent to x &gt; - 3? Provide a convincing argument.
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

-x<3 is the same as x>-3 because when you divide -x<3 by -1 on both sides it ends up as x>-3. (They're the same thing just one isn't simplified.)
