3x+2-5x=10 what is X

Advocard [28]3 years ago

Answer:

x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

3 x - 5 x + 2 = 10

Grouping like terms, 3 x - 5 x + 2 = 2 + (3 x - 5 x):

2 + (3 x - 5 x) = 10

3 x - 5 x = -2 x:

-2 x + 2 = 10

Subtract 2 from both sides:

(2 - 2) - 2 x = 10 - 2

2 - 2 = 0:

-2 x = 10 - 2

10 - 2 = 8:

-2 x = 8

Divide both sides of -2 x = 8 by -2:

(-2 x)/(-2) = 8/(-2)

(-2)/(-2) = 1:

x = 8/(-2)

The gcd of 8 and -2 is 2, so 8/(-2) = (2×4)/(2 (-1)) = 2/2×4/(-1) = 4/(-1):

x = 4/(-1)

Multiply numerator and denominator of 4/(-1) by -1:

Answer:  x = -4

I’m begging for help!! ASAP
kompoz [17]

This is an awful question.  They mean to say  the number of hours practicing <em>per week</em> (we'll call it h) varies inversely with the <em>time</em> (t) she runs her event.  Unless they mean to imply more practicing makes Tyler slower, in which case she should just get a pizza.

Inverse variation means the product is a constant, we'll call it k.

ht = k

When h = 1 hour t=6 minutes

(1)(6) = k

k = 6  (hour*minutes, but as long as we're consistent we don't need to sweat the unit.)

Decreasing her time by one minute means t = 6 - 1 = 5.  We solve for h.

ht = k

h = k/t = 6/5 = 1.2 hours

Answer: 1.2 hours, second choice
