Answer:
A(2)
Step-by-step explanation:
3(x-5)-4(x+3)
Multiply the first bracket by 3
(3)(x)=3x
(3)(-5)=-15
(-4)(x)=-4x
(-4)(3)=-12
3x-15-4x-12
3x-4x-15-12 ( combine like terms)
Answer: -x-27
Answer:
14x - 8 = 22 + 20x
x = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let "the number" be represented by x
Take each part of the statement and translate into algebraic form
"14 times a number" 14x
"decreased By eight" -8
"is" =
"22 Increased by" 22 +
"20 times The same number" 20x
Put the equation together. Solve for x by isolating.
(
14x - 8 = 22 + 20x
14x - 8 - 20x = 22 + 20x - 20x Subtract 20x from both sides
-6x - 8 = 22
-6x - 8 + 8 = 22 + 8 Add 8 to both sides
-6x = 30
-6x ÷ -6 = 30 ÷ -6 Divide both sides by -6
x = -5
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
You take 3/4 + 3/4 and add it. That equals 1.5, so you take 3/4+ 3/4 again and you get 1.5 . So, 1.5+1.5 is 3. So that's how you get your total of 4 boxes.
7435 divided by 5 equals 1487
