Answer:

x=9/2

Step-by-step explanation:

First distribute 2

2x-4-5=3-2x+6

Add the like terms on the left side -4-5=-9

2x-9=3-2x+6

Do this with the right side 3+6=9

2x-9=-2x+9

Add 9 from the left side to the right side

2x=-2x+18

Then add 2x from the right side to the left side

4x=18

Divide 4 from both sides

x=18/4 or 9/2

Answer:

9/2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-4-5= 3-2x+6  distribute 2 through the parentheses

2x-4-5=9-2x     add the numbers

2x-9=9-2x calculate the difference

2x+2x-9= 9  move variable to left side and change sign

2x+2x= 9+9 move constant to right side and change sign

4x= 18  collect like terms

x=9/2 divide both sides by 4

adelina 88 [10]
X = mary's shells
g = 1 1/4x + 5
n = 1 1/2x+ 1
g = n

1 1/4x + 5 = 1 1/2x + 1
5/4x + 5 = 3/2x + 1...multiply by common denominator of 4, this will get rid of fractions...however, this is optional...u can work with fractions if u wish.
5x + 20 = 6x + 4
5x - 6x = 4 - 20
-x = - 16
x = 16....so Mary has 16 shells
