Answer:
$0.23 or D
Step-by-step explanation:
Edg :)
First combine like terms ( x's go with x's), so subtract 2x to both sides and you get:
5+ (3x-2x) = 6 + (2x-2x)
5 + x = 6
Isolate x by bringing 5 to the other side by subtraction
(5-5) + x = (6-5)
x = 1
Hope this helped!
Answer:
y = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
3y - 2(5y - 7) = -9y + 6 (Given)
3y - 10y + 14 = -9y + 6 (Distribute)
-7y + 14 = -9y + 6 (Add like terms)
2y + 14 = 6 (Add 9y on both sides)
2y = -8 (Subtract 14 on both sides)
y = -4 (Divide 2 on both sides)
You can check by substituting the solution for y:
3(-4) - 2(5(-4) - 7) = -9(-4) + 6
-12 - 2(-20 - 7) = 36 + 6
-12 - 2(-27) = 42
-12 + 54 = 42
42 = 42
