Answer:
x=-7
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
3(x + -2) = 5x + 8
Reorder the terms:
3(-2 + x) = 5x + 8
(-2 * 3 + x * 3) = 5x + 8
(-6 + 3x) = 5x + 8
Reorder the terms:
-6 + 3x = 8 + 5x
Solving
-6 + 3x = 8 + 5x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-5x' to each side of the equation.
-6 + 3x + -5x = 8 + 5x + -5x
Combine like terms: 3x + -5x = -2x
-6 + -2x = 8 + 5x + -5x
Combine like terms: 5x + -5x = 0
-6 + -2x = 8 + 0
-6 + -2x = 8
Add '6' to each side of the equation.
-6 + 6 + -2x = 8 + 6
Combine like terms: -6 + 6 = 0
0 + -2x = 8 + 6
-2x = 8 + 6
Combine like terms: 8 + 6 = 14
-2x = 14
Divide each side by '-2'.
x = -7
Simplifying
x = -7
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
3 red, 1 blue, and 4 yellow...thats a total of 8 marbles
so a red was drawn and not replaced....means we now have 7 marbles.
P(yellow) : since we still have 4 yellow and there are a total of 7 marbles, the probability of drawing a yellow is : 4/7 <==
Answer:
3, -3, 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The exlcusions of x are where the denominator =0
So we can write the following equations
x²-9=0
and
5x=0
Let's solve the first one
x²-9=0
x²=9
x= ±3
and
5x=0
x=0
Therefore x cannot equal 3, -3, 0
