3x+4=-5x-3+15
First combine like terms:
3x+4=-5x+12
Get x on one side:
3x+4=-5x+12
-3x -3x
4=-8x+12
Next get x by itself:
4=8x+12
-12 -12
-8=8x
Now divide one more time to get x by itself since 8x is 8 times x and we must do the opposite (÷).
-8/8=8x/8
-1=x ---> x=1
$10.00x$60 equals $6.00 so
Try this solution/explanation:
<u>way 1</u>:
rule: for an equation where no roots P+Q=0. It means, Px-Qx=0, ⇔ x(P-Q)=0, ⇔ P=Q.
for answer 'D' P=Q=15.
<u>way 2</u>:
rule: if an equation of the line has a form y=kx+b, then y₁||y₂ if k₁=k₂. It means, for y₁=Px-45 || y₂=Qx+75, then P=Q. P=Q, if 'D' answer.
Answer: D
