Answer 1

distribute the coefficients...

3q-15+2q+10

simplify

5q-5

Answer 2

what does q =

Answer 3

well from the given information, it cant equal anything. you have to give me an equation with an equal sign.

Answer 4

so would that be no solution ?

Answer 5

hello ?

Answer 6

its not "no solution" or anything. What you've given me is not an equation, therefore it cannot be solved.

Answer 7

Look at it again and make sure what you have entered here is correct.

Answer 8

It seems like this is a simple distributing equation.

I would say 3q-15+2q+10
= 5q-5
= q-1 if you simplify even further

Answer 9

oh im sorry .. 3(q-5)=2(q-5)

Answer 10

That is what i thought.

First distribute..

3q-15=2q-10

move...

q=5

Answer 11

Oh okay.

Answer 12

It's the same thing. Go ahead and distribute ok.

Answer 13

thanks

Answer 14

And then subtract from the sides. so you get:

3q-15=2q+10
= q-15= 10
= q= 25 :)
