7+ 3x= -8
-8-7=-15
-15 divided by 3= -5
-5 is the answer
65 = 12.1+h the flower is 65 inches. it has grown 12.1 inches since the last time he measured it. the last time he measured it, it was height h.
65 = 12.1 + h
subtract 12.1 from both sides
65-12.1 = 12.1 + h- 12.1
52.9 = h
The last time he measured it it was 52.9 inches
20/28 = 3x / (4x + 2)
84x = 20(4x + 2)
84x - 80x = 40
4x = 40
x = 10
so the 2 lines are equal to 30 and 42
