<h2>Solving Equations</h2>

To solve linear equations, we must perform inverse operations on both sides of the equal sign to <em>cancel values out</em>.

If something is being added to x, subtract it from both sides.
If something is being subtracted from x, add it on both sides.
Same with multiplication and division. If x is being divided, multiply. If x is being multiplied, divide.

We perform inverse operations to<em> combine like terms</em>. This means to get x to one side and everything else on the other.

<h2>Solving the Questions</h2><h3>Question 1</h3>

$5x+7=15$

Because 7 is being added to x, subtract it from both sides:

$5x+7-7=15-7\\5x=8$

Because x is being multiplied by 5, divide both sides by 5:

$\dfrac{5x}{5}=\dfrac{8}{5}\\\\x=\dfrac{8}{5}$

Therefore. $x=\dfrac{8}{5}$ .

<h3>Question 2</h3>

$7x+4=5x-18$

Here, we can group all the x values on the left side of the equation. Subtract 5x from both sides:

$7x+4-5x=5x-18-5x\\2x+4=-18$

To isolate x, subtract 4 from both sides:

$2x+4-4=-18-4\\2x=-22$

Divide both sides by 2:

$\dfrac{2x}{2}=\dfrac{-22}{2}\\\\x=-11$

Therefore, $x=-11$ .

This meal originally costs $75. Fatima used a 20% off coupon and then tax was added. The total after coupon and tax was $75.

Savatey [412]

The discount given on the cost of the meal is $15

<h3>How to calculate tax on a given price</h3>

According to the question, we are given the following information

The original cost of the meal = $75

Off coupon = 20%

Required

The number of coupons given

coupon amount = 0.2 * 75
coupon amount = $15

Hence the discount given on the cost of the meal is $15

Answer:

If you need any further help, feel free to let me know

Step-by-step explanation:

The answers are

(8-9)-(9+3)*5=-61

5+(5+5+6)+9=30

(5/3-3)= -4 over 3 or -4/3 or -1.3 or -1 1/3 depends on what your choices are but all those are correct

2*3+(4*2)/2=10

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$2.\\(a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2\\\\x^2-16x=-8\\\\x^2-2(x)(8)=-8\\\\\text{We have}\ 2ab=2(x)(8).\ \text{Therefore}\ b=8.\\\\x^2-2(x)(8)=-8\qquad\text{add}\ 8^2=64\ \text{to both sides}\\\\x^2-2(x)(8)+8^2=-8+64\\\\(x-8)^2=56$

$5.\\2x^2+x-1=2\qquad\text{subtract 2 from both sides}\\\\2x^2+x-3=0\\\\2x^2+3x-2x-3=0\\\\x(2x+3)-1(2x+3)=0\\\\(2x+3)(x-1)=0\iff 2x+3=0\ \vee\ x-1=0\\\\2x+3=0\qquad\text{subtract 3 from both sides}\\2x=-3\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\\boxed{x=-\dfrac{3}{2}}\\\\x-1=0\qquad\text{add 1 to both sides}\\\boxed{x=1}$

$6.\\2x^2-4x=0\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\\\x^2-2x=0\\\\x(x-2)=0\iff x=0\ \vee\ x-2=0\\\\\boxed{x=0}\\\\x-2=0\qquad\text{add 2 to both sides}\\\boxed{x=2}$
