<span>5×(2-x)+9-7x
=5</span>×2-5<span>×x+9-7x
=10-5x+9-7x
=10+9-(5x+7x)
=19-12x
That's your solution. ^_^</span>
3x - x + 8 + 5x - 2 = 10
combine like terms on the left, then add or subtract as asked
(3x - x + 5x) + (8 - 2) = 10
7x + 6 = 10
subtract 6 from both sides
7x = 4
divide both sides by 7
x = 4/7
Hope this helps! :)
One box is 24lb another box is 8 because i half of 32 is 16 and 1/2 of 166 is 8 so 16 + 8 = 24 leaving another 8 behind
