Answer:

x=16

Step-by-step explanation:

7x−2(3x−5)=26

Use the distributive property to multiply −2 by 3x−5.

7x−6x+10=26

Combine 7x and −6x to get x.

x+10=26

Subtract 10 from both sides.

x=26−10

Subtract 10 from 26 to get 16.

x=16

Answer:

x = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

7x - 2(3x - 5) = 26

7x - 6x + 10 = 26

7x - 6x + 10 - 10 = 26 - 10

x = 26 - 10

x = 16

Work out the value of x.<br>Need answer soon :)

Answer:

x+20

Step-by-step explanation:

As we can see n the diagram, there are parallel traversals and one line, and the two angles given are same-side interior angles. We know that when there is parallel traversal, and we have same side interiors, the sum of the measure of the two angles are supplementary. Supplementary means 180 degrees, or a straight line.

So we plug everything in and we have 4x+5x=180 degrees

4x+5x=9x, so 9x=180

We divide by 9 on both sides to get the value of x, which is 20

Hope it helps!

It's hard to have √2 points in a basketball game (or almost any game). The number of points scored is a discrete random variable, usually restricted to non-negative integers.

What is the solution to the system of equations? Use any method. {y=−3x+1 {2x+5y=18

Softa [21]

Answer:

So the solution set of the equations are {(-1,4)}

the solution is x = -1 and y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations given to us are

y = -3x + 1 ..................(i)

2x + 5y = 18 .................(ii)

To find the value of x and y or the solution set of the system of equations

Now in first equation we see that

y = -3x + 1

Putting this value in equation (ii)

which is

2x + 5y = 18

Putting value of y from (i) in it

2x + 5(-3x + 1) = 18

Opening the bracket and multiplying inside

2x -15x + 5 = 18

-13 x + 5 = 18

Subtracting 5 from both sides of the equation

-13x + 5 - 5 = 18 -5

-13x = 13

Dividing both sides by -13

$\frac{-13x}{-13}=\frac{13}{-13}$

Cutting out the same values gives us

x = -1

For value of y

putting value of x in equation (i)

which is

y = -3x + 1

Putting the value

y = -3(-1)+1

y=3+1

y=4

So the solution set of the equations are {(-1,4)}

the solution is x = -1 and y = 4
