Four times a number plus five more than three times the number is 47.
What is your question?
Four times a number plus five more than three times the number is 47.
The equation is 4x + (3x+5) = 47 To solve, combine like terms and isolate the variable.
i still dnt get it
Okay let the no. Be x.. So four times of it would be 4x. Now 3 times he no.+5=47... So ur equation would be 4x+(3x+5)=47.. Now solve it
You combine the x's so that you have 7x + 5 = 47 You need to get rid of the 5 so you subtract it from both sides. You then have 7x = 42 Solve for x
i think i got it ?
What answer did you get?
5 - 9n = 47; -5.77
i dont think its .. right tho .. math is my worst subject
No the answer is six and it has not been rounded off.. Okay shall we do this step by step? @deesmith ??
Look u previously got an equation 4x+(3x+5)=47 correct? Now what you need to do is remove the brackets to have a simple equation4x+3x+5=47. Can u solve it now @deesmith ??
Alright, here we go. Your original equation is 4x + 3x + 5 = 47 You need to get all the x's together so you add them 4x + 3x = 7x Your equation now looks like this, 7x + 5 = 47 Since you are trying to find x, you subtract the 5 from both sides. 5 - 5 =0 and 47 - 5 = 42 You now have 7x = 42 We need to find out what x is. Since it is multiplied by 7 (7x), we do the opposite, and divide 7x/7 = x (remember that what you do to one side, you must also do to the other) and 42/7 = 6 You end up with x = 6
:) thanks ... dang your smart !!!
