Hey there!☺


Equation
−(2x+5)+14=22 Simplify both sides
−2x + −5 + 14 = 22 Distribute
(−2x) + (−5+14) = 22 Combine Like Terms
-2x + 9 = 22
-2x + 9 - 9 = 22 - 9 Subtract 9 from both sides
-2x = 13
-2x/-2 = 13/-2
-13/2 Add the negative to 13
x = -13/2
Hope this helps!
A) 8/16 = 1/2; YES
B) 2^-1 = 1/2^1 = 1/2; YES
C) 2^0 = 1; NO
D) 2^1 = 2; NO
Hope this helped!

Simplifying
15 + -5(4x + -7) = 50
Reorder the terms:
15 + -5(-7 + 4x) = 50
15 + (-7 * -5 + 4x * -5) = 50
15 + (35 + -20x) = 50
Combine like terms: 15 + 35 = 50
50 + -20x = 50
Add '-50' to each side of the equation.
50 + -50 + -20x = 50 + -50
Combine like terms: 50 + -50 = 0
0 + -20x = 50 + -50
-20x = 50 + -50
Combine like terms: 50 + -50 = 0
-20x = 0
Solving
-20x = 0
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Divide each side by '-20'.
x = 0.0
Simplifying
x = 0.0
