Consider number 17. You know that
17=9+8.
Then for negative numbers you have the same rule (with respect to sign -):
-17=(-9)+(-8).
Since (-9)+9=9+(-9)=9-9=0, you have that
-17+9=(-9)+(-8)+9=(-9+9)+(-8)=0+(-8)=-8.
Answer: -17=(-9)+(-8).
C
work:
75 is equal to 2x+15
75-15 = 60
60/2 = 30
x=30
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 7 = 27 OR 3 + 3x = 30.
2x = 27 - 7 OR 3x = 30 - 3
2x = 20 OR 3x = 27
x = 20/2 OR x = 27/3
x = 10 OR x = 9
Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, create an equation or formula
- because they are congurent, IN = AT, so:
2x+10 = 26 (minus 10 from both sides)
2x = 16 (divide both sides by 2)
x = 8
Sub into the formula:
2 x 8 + 10 = 26
26 = 26
Answer:
Simplifying
5x + x = 54
Combine like terms: 5x + x = 6x
6x = 54
Solving
6x = 54
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Divide each side by '6'.
x = 9
Simplifying
x = 9
