Answer 27

mathway? :?

Answer 28

It solves Algebra problems so you can do a problem then check it to see if it is right. Do NOT misuse it. Cheating is VERY VERY BAD.

Answer 29

Oh cool! They say the anser directly!
But the only problem is they ask you money to see steps. :(

Answer 30

Thats why you must do your own work first

Right.

Answer 32

lol

Answer 33

Answer 34

4x - 9 = 15
I may know this one but am not sure.

Answer 35

btw the answer to the other question is also -3

Answer 36

I know.:)
I got that.

Answer 37

x=6

Answer 38

6?

Answer 39

Ahhh...okay. Now I get it. :)
I have another: maybe last.
In order to solve the equation -3x - 6 = 5, the first step is to:

add 6 to both sides

divide by 5 on both sides

subtract 6 from both sides

multiply by 5 on both sides

Answer 40

So you simply use like terms on both sides right?

Answer 41

as my 5th grade teacher says "x wants to be alone" lol.

Answer 42

But x equals to a number right?

Answer 43

At the part which it it says '6+6=5+6' do you add them first and that's how you get x= 11/3?

Answer 44

You have to cancel out the negative six on the left side because you have to get x alone, but to be able to add 6 to cancel out -6, you must add 6 to the right side also. Then you simplify. You get -3x=11. You still have to get x alone so you must cancel out the 3. The negative sign belongs to the x. Like with nouns and adjectives 3 describes how many x's there are. The opposite of multiplication is division so -3x÷3=11÷3 because what is done to one side must be done to the other. 3÷3 is 1 so that leaves one negative x. -x=11/3. You arent solving for negative x though, you are solving for positive x so since -x=11/3 that makes x=-11/3.
