Answer:
x = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
2 + -6(1 + -1x) = 6 + -4(-1x + -2)
2 + (1 * -6 + -1x * -6) = 6 + -4(-1x + -2)
2 + (-6 + 6x) = 6 + -4(-1x + -2)
Combine like terms: 2 + -6 = -4
-4 + 6x = 6 + -4(-1x + -2)
Reorder the terms:
-4 + 6x = 6 + -4(-2 + -1x)
-4 + 6x = 6 + (-2 * -4 + -1x * -4)
-4 + 6x = 6 + (8 + 4x)
Combine like terms: 6 + 8 = 14
-4 + 6x = 14 + 4x
Solving
-4 + 6x = 14 + 4x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-4x' to each side of the equation.
-4 + 6x + -4x = 14 + 4x + -4x
Combine like terms: 6x + -4x = 2x
-4 + 2x = 14 + 4x + -4x
Combine like terms: 4x + -4x = 0
-4 + 2x = 14 + 0
-4 + 2x = 14
Add '4' to each side of the equation.
-4 + 4 + 2x = 14 + 4
Combine like terms: -4 + 4 = 0
0 + 2x = 14 + 4
2x = 14 + 4
Combine like terms: 14 + 4 = 18
2x = 18
Divide each side by '2'.
x = 9
Simplifying
x = 9
Answer:
can you please give us the statements?
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer would be A 19 since the x is absolute value
3x+8.5 =2.5x + 14.5
subtract 2.5x from each side
.5x + 8.5 = 14.5
subtract 8.5 from each side
.5x =6
multiply by 2
x =12
