Question

Linear equations, problems attatched

Answer 1

-17=10x+3
10x=-17-3
10x=-20
x=-2

Answer 2

9x+5=10x-2
7=x

Answer 3

5x-15+4x-1=2x+3x-6
9x-5x=-6+16
4x=10
x=10/4

Answer 4

\[8x-3=4x+4(x-1)\]
\[8x-3=4x+4x-4\]
\[8x-3=8x-4\] not possible.
do you need the last ones?

Answer 5

yes i dooo. This is all on an actual assignment, so if it's not possible to answer, the what do I do?

Answer 6

write "inconsistent"

Answer 7

\[\frac{5}{4}x+\frac{1}{2}=2x-\frac{1}{2}\]
multiply both sides by 4 get
\[5x+2=8x-2\]
\[4=3x\]
\[x=\frac{4}{3}\]

Answer 8

last one is an identity get
\[9(x-3)=9x-27\]
\[9x-27=9x-27\] always true.

Answer 9

btw sorry to hear about medusa.
