4x + 7x - 2 + 5x - 10 find the value of x

Mathematics
1 answer:
valina [46]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x = 4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Group like terms

   4x + 7x + 5x - 2 - 10 = x

2) Add similar elements

   16x - 2 - 10 = x

3) Subtract

   16x - 12 = x

4) Add 12 to both sides

   16x - 12 + 12 = x + 12

5) Simplify

   16x = x + 12

6) Subtract x from both sides

   16x - x = x + 12 - x

7) Simplify

   15x = 12

8) Divide both sides by 15

    15x/15 = 12/15

9) Simplify

   x = 4/5

Translate this phrase into an algebraic expression. 73 less than twice Jose's height Use the variable to represent Jose's height
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

x-73

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x=Jose's height.  If it says "less than," then that is subtraction.  Since Jose's height is not defined, there is no specific number that can be used to describe "73 less than twice Jose's height," so I use the variable x, and then subtract 73.
