Y/x = 5 bc in order to isolate the variables you must divide by x on both sides to separate the 5, leaving you with y/x=5
Answer:
-8f
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1. no solutions
2. one solution
Step-by-step explanation:
1. -4(5-3x)=12x+20
-20+12x=12x+20
-40+12x=12x
-40=0?????
So no solutions.
2. 3x+7(x+1)=2(6x+5)+2
3x+7x+7=12x+10+2
10x+7=12x+12
-2x+7=12
-2x=5
x=-5/2
So one solution.

Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Corresponding segments are proportional.
(3x +1)/10 = (7x -1)/22
11(3x +1) = 5(7x -1) . . . . . . multiply by 110
33x + 11 = 35x -5 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses
16 = 2x . . . . . . . . . . . add 5-33x to both sides
8 = x . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2
Answer:
-a will be greater than -b because for example, when a=2 and b=5, -a=-2 and -b=-5
