Can You Tell Me If My Answers Are Correct! 1. 10(x+2)+3(5x+4)=-18 Answer: x= 16 2. -17x9-3x-8+9x=-10 Answer: x=-1 3. 3-4^2*5/ 8+3 Answer: -4 4. 8x-17=-57 Answer: x= -5 5. x/-12+4=-7 Answer: x=132
1. incorrect - if you plug 16 in for x the total comes to 432
10(x+2)+3(5x+4)=-18 10x + 20 + 15x + 12 = -18 25x = -20-12-18 25x = -50
can you understand what i just did?
Yea! I Just Made A Small Mistake! But Is Everything Else Good?
4 and 5 are ok
2 Is Wrong?
not sure what 3 is exactly is it 3 - 4^2 * 5 --------- 9 + 3
* i meant 8+3 on the bottom
3- 4^2*5 Divided By 8+3
\[3-4^2*5\div8+3\]
ok that 3 - 16*5 -77 ------- = -- = -7 11 11
-17x9-3x-8+9x=-10 what is the first term -17x9 mean?
Wouldnt You Add The Like Terms?
He Has To Be! Negative 4
I Mean It!
i dont understand what -17x9 is is it -17 times 9 or -17 times x times 9 maybe
what which question must be negative 4?
Sorry Typed The Problem Wrong! \[-17x+9-3x-8+9x=-10\]
Nvm! I Got Confused With The Answer( Negative 4 Thing)
oh ok - noproblem lets plug in your answer x = -1 into the equation -17*-1 + 9 -3*-1 - 8 + 9*-1 = 17 + 9 + 3 - 8 - 9 = 26 +3 - 17 = 12 so theres something wrong there
−17x+9−3x−8+9x=−10 bring like terms together -17x - 3x + 9x + 9 - 8 = -10 -17x - 3x + 9x + 1 = -10 now subtract 1 from both sides of equation -17x - 3x + 9x = -11 -20x + 9x = -11 -11x = -11 x = 1 x = 1, you were close - just got the sign wrong
