Answer:
x = -14
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
7x + 156 = 9x + 184
Reorder the terms:
156 + 7x = 9x + 184
Reorder the terms:
156 + 7x = 184 + 9x
Solving
156 + 7x = 184 + 9x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-9x' to each side of the equation.
156 + 7x + -9x = 184 + 9x + -9x
Combine like terms: 7x + -9x = -2x
156 + -2x = 184 + 9x + -9x
Combine like terms: 9x + -9x = 0
156 + -2x = 184 + 0
156 + -2x = 184
Add '-156' to each side of the equation.
156 + -156 + -2x = 184 + -156
Combine like terms: 156 + -156 = 0
0 + -2x = 184 + -156
-2x = 184 + -156
Combine like terms: 184 + -156 = 28
-2x = 28
Divide each side by '-2'.
x = -14
Simplifying
x = -14
When solving anproblem including money a negative answer can represent debt (how much you owe)
Answer:
80
Step-by-step explanation:
first, put in (5x-4) for the x in g(x).
g(f(x))=(5x-4)^2 -1
now, FOIL and simplify.
25x^2-40x+16-1
25x^2-40x+15
now, plug in -1 for x.
25(-1)^2-40(-1)+15
25+40+15
80
