i dnt know

OpenStudy (aripotta):

what's the opposite of -1.3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (aripotta):

you can't add 0.7x and 1.3 because they aren't like terms

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what do i do

OpenStudy (aripotta):

you'd get 0.7x ≤ 4.9

OpenStudy (aripotta):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk

OpenStudy (aripotta):

how do you get rid of the 0.7 to get x by itself?

OpenStudy (anonymous):
