Solve for x: -2(x + 3) = -2(x + 1) - 4. 2 3 All real numbers No solution
-2(x + 3) = -2(x + 1) - 4 distribute -2x - 6 = -2x - 2 - 4 add like terms -2x - 6 = -2x - 6 add 2x to both sides +2x +2x -6 = -6 -6 does equal -6 therefore "all real numbers" but keep in mind that if it was something like 2 = 5 2 does not equal 5 so "no solution"
wow thanks and I didn't even tag you madal
oops I mean medal.
lol yeah ;) and you're welcome :P
Ok this one I have to wright the answer and then I could answer the rest because this is hard. :P
Solve for x: 3 over 4 x + 5 over 8 = 4x x = __________________ Write your answer as a fraction in simplest form. Use the "/" symbol for the fraction bar.
(3/4)x + (5/8) = 4x make your life easier, multiply everything by 8 6x + 5 = 32x then subtract both sides by 6x -6x -6x 5 = 26x divide both sides by 26
it equals to 0.1923076923
mmm I think they want you to keep it as a fraction :)
well then is it 5/26
yep :)
