What is the answer x + 2x + 3(x + 4) = 5x - 6

Mathematics
1 answer:
dybincka [34]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x= -18

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 2x + 3(x + 4) = 5x-6

Distribute

x+2x+3x+12 = 5x-6

Combine like terms

6x +12 = 5x-6

Subtract 5x from each side

6x+12 -5x= 5x-6-5x

x+12 = -6

Subtract 12 from each side

x+12-12 = -6-12

x= -18

How do u turn 2 3/4 into a improper faction
n200080 [17]

To turn a mixed number into an improper fraction, you have to multiply the denominator with the whole number and add the numerator to the result. The denominator doesn't change.

The denominator is 4. The whole number is 2. Multiply:

4 \times 2 = 8

The numerator is 3. Add that to the product of the denominator and whole number.

8+3=11

The denominator stays the same. The denominator is 4. Make it as a fraction(improper).

Numerator = 11 \\ Denominator = 4 \\ \\ Fraction: \frac{11}{4}

Your answer is \frac{11}{4}
