Answer:

x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

- 1/3 x + 12 = -2x + 2

(- 1/3 x + 1/3) + 12 = (-2x + 1/3) + 2

12 = - 1 2/3x + 2

12 -2 = - 1 2/3x (+ 2 - 2)

10 = - 1 2/3x

x = -6

What is another way to write to 72- (-25) ?
Valentin [98]

Your answer would be 1, or 72+25.

What is happening in this case is a negative number is being subtracted from a positive. This means you are taking away a negative. The two negatives cancel each other out, and then it becomes you are adding a positive.

Another way I like to think about this is the two minus symbols combine together to form a plus sign.

Hope this helped!
