Answer:
X = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
-6x + 18 = 7 - (4x + 9)
first we simplify the parentheses.
distribute the invisible number one created by the negative sign in front of the parentheses to get -6x + 18 = 7 - 4x - 9
then simplify further by subtracting 9 from the right side, leaving you with
-6x + 18 = -2 - 4x
next, add 2 to both sides to isolate the variable.
-6x + 20 = -4x
then, to isolate the variable further add 6x to both sides.
20 = -4x
divide both sides by -4 to isolate the variable
-5 = x
so, x = -5
Estimate of 2854 = 3000
so 3000 times 9 = 27000
Answer: x=15
Step-by-step explanation: Since 3x+5 is equal to 50, you can write 3x+5=50, and 3x=45, x=15.
