take 3/2 - 1/4 over to the right side of the equal sign( and then the signs change; the '+' & '-' )

then 1/2x + 3/2x =2x

and 5 -3/2 + 1/4 = 15/4

to get x alone you divide both sides by 2.

i hope this helps

If ab = c - d, which of the following is an expression for d in terms of a, b, and c?

horsena [70]

ANSWER

$d = - ab + c$

EXPLANATION

The given expression is

$ab = c - d$

To find an expression for d in terms of a, b, and c, means we want to make d the subject of the relation.

This means that, we need to isolate d on one side of the equation while all other terms are on the other side.

We subtract from both sides of the equation to obtain,

$ab - c = - d$

We now divide through by -1, to get,

$- ab + c = d$

Or

$d = - ab + c$

Solve by substitution y=2x-1 y=3x+1

kupik [55]

Answer: x = -2

Step-by-Step Explanation:

Since the two expressions both equal y, you can set them equal to each other.

2x-1 = 3x+1

Subtract 2x from both sides.

-1 = x+1

Subtract 1 from both sides.

-2 = x
