In the step after -6x+10=4x+20, he moved the terms incorrectly. you have to add 6x to both sides so it would be 10=4x+6x+20 which simplifies to 10=10x+20. subtract 20 from both sides to get -10=10x. divide both sides by 10. the answer is x=-1
Once you combine like terms you are left with 18k +3.
Step-by-step explanation:
I don't know if this is the right way to so it, but I would do it like this
since a triangle has 180 degrees, the angles all have to add up to 180
So 180 = a + b + c
we already know a, its 95
So 180 = 95 + b + c
now we know the equation for b, so we'll just put it there instead of the b, and since the angles are the same, we should put it instead of c too
180 = 95 + (4x-15) + (4x-15)
now subtract 95 from both sides
85 = (4x-15) + (4x-15)
add the xs and numbers together
85 = 8x - 30
now add the 30 to both sides
115 = 8x
divide by 8
your x is 14 3/8 or 14.375 or 115/8
that's not your angle, that's your x
Hey there!!
Given :
The total cost for 2 pairs of pants and 5 shirts is $61.
The total cost for 3 pairs of paints and 4 shirts is $67.
<em>Let's take the cost for each pair of paints as 'p' and the cost for each shirt as 's'. </em>
Now, let's get these into an equation.
<em>Peter's equation</em> :
... 2p + 5s = 61
<em>Jessica's equation : </em>
...3p + 4s = 67
......................................................................................................
2p + 5s = 61 --- (1)
3p + 4s = 67 --- (2)
Multiply the first equation with 3 and the second equation with 2.
6p + 15s = 183
6p + 8s = 134
S<em>ubtract both the equations - </em>
... 7s = 49
Divide both sides with 7.
... s = 7
<u><em>Hence, the cost of each shirt is $7. </em></u>
Hope my answer helps!!
