Answer:
x = -24
Step-by-step explanation:
We gotta get rid of that 3 under x, so we multiply the reciprocal of 1/3, which is 3, if we multiply that on one side, we must also multiply on the other side.
3 · x/3 = -8 · 3
x = -24
Hope this helps! good luck on whatever you're doing :]
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
90x - 60y = 68.....multiply by -1
90x - 70y = 91
---------------------------
-90x + 60y = -68 (result of multiplying by -1)
90x - 70y = 91
---------------------------add
-10y = 23
y = -23/10 <===
90x - 60y = 68
90x - 60(-23/10) = 68
90x + 138 = 68
90x = 68 - 138
90x = - 70
x = -70/90
x = -7/9 <=====
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 2x-6
Work Shown:
john = x
sam = x-3 since he scored 3 fewer than john
rob = 2*(sam) = 2(x-3) = 2*x-2*3 = 2x-6
