Let's get the same terms on the same side.
I am going to remove 5x from both sides of the equation by subtracting 5x
5x - 5x -7 = 7x -5x - 17
-7 = 2x - 17 now lets remove the 17 from both sides
-7 + 17 = 2x (why do we add 17? Think of 2x -17 as 2x + -17. Tor remove a negative number we add it.
Now we finally have 10=2x and if we divide both sides by 2
<u>10</u> = <u>2x</u><u>
</u>2 2 we get that x = 5
<u />Let's check by substituting 5 in the original equation:
5(5) - 7 = 7(5) - 17
25 - 7 = 35 - 17
18 = 18
Answer:
-5
Step-by-step explanation:
First, distribute the 2 to the 3, -9, and 5. You will get 6 + 6 - 18 + 10 + (-9). Then, you can start from the beginning and work through combining the terms. The original equation is in bold after every step.
6 + 6 - 18 + 10 + (-9)
6+6 = 12
12 - 18 + 10 + (-9)
12-18 = -6
- 6 + 10 + (-9)
-6 + 10 = 4
4 + (-9)
4 - 9 = -5
Answer: -5
Answer:
5,0 is the answer of ur question
Answer:(2,0) x=2,y=0
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve your system by elimination.
−x+y=−2;2x−3y=4
Multiply the first equation by 2,and multiply the second equation by 1.
2(−x+y=−2)
1(2x−3y=4)
Becomes:
−2x+2y=−4
2x−3y=4
Add these equations to eliminate x:
−y=0
Then solve−y=0 for y:
−y=0
−y/−1 =0/−1
(Divide both sides by -1)
y=0
Now that we've found y let's plug it back in to solve for x.
Write down an original equation:
−x+y=−2
Substitute0foryin−x+y=−2:
−x+0=−2
−x=−2(Simplify both sides of the equation)
−x/−1 = −2/−1
(Divide both sides by -1)
x=2
