Use the arithmetic operations to get the variable x on one side of the equation and everything else on the opposite side.
If something is being is being done to a variable, we undo that operation by using the inverse of that operation.
For example, if 10 is being added to x, we use the inverse of addition or subtraction.
18 - 7x = -20.5
We variable x is being multiplied by 7 and is subtracting 18. We need to undo all those operations.
18 - 7x = -20.5
-7x = -38.5
Now the variable is only being multiplied by -7. Reverse the operation.
-7x = -38.5
x = 5.5
So, x is equal to 5.5.
1) 7
2) irrational number (I believe)
3) square root of 441
Answer:
Infinite Solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
If you look at the equation careful you will see this part "-4y+4y". If you see that the variables cancel each other out leaving 2=2. That means that for any value of y, 2=2. Because the variable cancels itself out it doesn't mater what the variable is. So there is an infinite amount of values you can have for "y".
Answer:
Blank 1: 12.5 mph
Blank 2: .36 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 3.75/.3 = 12.5
2. 4.5/12.5 = .36
Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
6 + 7x = 55
7x = 55 - 6
7x = 49
x = 49/7
therefore x = 7
