Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

-(12 - 8x) = 5x + 15 - 7x

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Distribute negative:                    -12 + 8x = 5x + 15 - 7x
  2. Combine like terms:                   -12 + 8x = -2x + 15
  3. Add 2x on both sides:                -12 + 10x = 15
  4. Isolate <em>x</em> term:                              10x = 27
  5. Isolate <em>x</em>:                                       x = 27/10

Solve the following equation
Gnoma [55]
40x+8x^2=0 can be solved for x (there are two solutions):

Divide all 3 terms by the greatest common multiple (which is 8x):

40x+8x^2=0
------------- -----
       8x       8x

5 + x = 0             produces the root x = - 5.   

Setting 8x = 0 and solving for x produces the root x = 0.

Be certain to check these results.  substitute x = -5 into 40x+8x^2=0.  Is the resulting equation true or false?  Next, subs. x=-5 into 40x+8x^2=0.  Is the resulting equation true or false?
