Answer 5

ALL IT SAYS TO SOLVE A EQUATION, THEN ITS SAYS CHECK YOUR SOLUTION

Answer 6

i will after i solve it lol

Answer 7

OH OKA

Answer 8

\[5(x-3)+2x=41\]
\[5x-15+2x=41\] distributed five to x-3
\[7x-15=41\] add the x together
\[7x=56\] add 15 to both sides
\[x=8\]divide both sides by 7 to get x by itself

Answer 9

ok well you are right it does equal to 41. do u know how though?

Answer 10

@vanhoeak2 how did u get 15 for both sides?

Answer 11

Answer 14

@Anelika yes thats fine

Answer 15

I did show how to work it... under each equation is what i did to get the equation

Answer 16

Distribute, then isolate the variable to solve.\[5(X-3)+2X=41 \implies 5X-15+2X=41 \implies 7X=56 \implies X=8\]

Answer 17

ok so what u do first is 5(x-3) you need to times 5 into x wich is 5x then 5 into 3 which is 15

Answer 18

but im askin how did u get 15?@vanhoeak2

Answer 19

you times 5 by 3
