Answer:

Simplifying

3x + -1 = 2x + 5

Reorder the terms:

-1 + 3x = 2x + 5

Reorder the terms:

-1 + 3x = 5 + 2x

Solving

-1 + 3x = 5 + 2x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-1 + 3x + -2x = 5 + 2x + -2x

Combine like terms: 3x + -2x = 1x

-1 + 1x = 5 + 2x + -2x

Combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-1 + 1x = 5 + 0

-1 + 1x = 5

Add '1' to each side of the equation.

-1 + 1 + 1x = 5 + 1

Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0

0 + 1x = 5 + 1

1x = 5 + 1

Combine like terms: 5 + 1 = 6

1x = 6

Divide each side by '1'.

x = 6

Simplifying

x = 6

Answer is 6

Two tanks hold a total of 55 gallons of a toxic solvent. One tank holds 4 gallons more than twice the amount in the other. How m

Serhud [2]

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the volume of the first tank, and y is the volume of the second tank, then:

x + y = 55

x = 2y + 4

Solve the system of equations using either substitution or elimination. Using substitution:

2y + 4 + y = 55

3y + 4 = 55

3y = 51

y = 17

Solve for x using either equation.

x + 17 = 55

x = 38

The first tank holds 38 gallons, and the second tank holds 17 gallons.

-5/6x-7/30x+1/5x-52 please help me guys cuz imk not good with math

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

$\frac{-13}{15} x-52$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{-5}{6}x-\frac{7}{30}x+\frac{1}{5}x-52$

$=\frac{-5}{6}x+\frac{-7}{30}x+\frac{1}{5}x+-52$

Combine Like Terms:

$=\frac{-5}{6}x+\frac{-7}{30}x+\frac{1}{5}x+-52$

$=(\frac{-5}{6}x+\frac{-7}{30}x+\frac{1}{5}x)+(-52)$

$=\frac{-13}{15}x+-52$

Therefore, $\frac{-13}{15}x+-52$ will be your final answer.
