Description: They didn't distribute the 3 to both x and 5, so they just had 3x+5.
actual problem:
3(x+5)=3x+15
3x+15=3x+15
subtract 3x from both sides and end up with
15=15
Correct Answer: 15=15
Answer:
{(3,-2), (4,-2),(5,-2), (6,-2)} this relation is not a function.
First, simplify. Combine like terms
10x - 3x = 7x
7x + 1 = x + 4
Isolate the x. Subtract x from both sides, and 1 from both sides
7x (-x) + 1 (-1) = x (-x) + 4 (-1)
7x - x = 4 - 1
Simplify
6x = 3
Isolate the x. Divide 6 from both sides
6x/6 = 3/6
x = 1/2
1/2, or 0.5 is your answer for x.
hope this helps
