First add 5 to 16, so -3x=21
then divide by -3, so the answer is
x= -7
Answer:
Red = 10 cm, blue = 14 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Let the length of each red rod be </em><em>r </em><em>and each blue rod be </em><em>b</em>
<u>Then we have:</u>
<u>Multiply the first equation by 3 and the second one by 2:</u>
<u>Add the equations to eliminate one of variables:</u>
<u>Find the value of b:</u>
- 3*10 -2b = 2
- 30 - 2 = 2b
- 2b = 28
- b = 14 cm
Pretty sure its 0.2917, not sure tho,
Answer:
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve, we need to isolate the variable, x
5x-18=2(3x-12) +4
Distribute the 2
5x-18=2*3x + 2*-12 +4
5x-18=6x-24+4
Combine like terms (add -24 and 4)
5x-18=6x-20
Add 18 to both sides
5x=6x-2
Subtract 6x from both sides
-x=-2
Divide both sides by -1
x=2
5 : -16
6 : -19
7 : -22
8 : -25
9 : -28
10: -31
11 : -34
12: -37
13: -40
14 : -43
15 : -46
16 : - 49
17 : - 52
18 : - 55
19 : - 58
20: - 61
21 : - 64
22: -67
23: -70
23rd term : is -70
