Answer:
(d-3)/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Difference is subtraction
(d-3)/2
4(4x + 6) - 7 = 77 - 4x......distribute thru the parenthesis
16x + 24 - 7 = 77 - 4x ...simplify
16x + 17 = 77 - 4x ...addition property of equality....add 4x to both sides
16x + 4x + 17 = 77 ...subtraction property ...subtract 17 from both sides
16x + 4x = 77 - 17...combine like terms
20x = 60 ....division property....divide both sides by 20
x = 60/20
x = 3
Answer:
x = 44
Step-by-step explanation:
sqrt(x+5) -3 =4
Add 3 to each side
sqrt(x+5) -3+3 =4+3
sqrt(x+5) =7
Square each side
(sqrt(x+5))^2 =7^2
x+5 = 49
Subtract 5 from each side
x+5-5 = 49-5
x=44
