Question

HELP PLEASE!!

Answer 1

Equation #1 Equation #2
5x - 2x = 2x + 2 5x + 2 = 2x - 10
Help solve please!

Answer 2

5x-2x=2x+2
add the variables
3x=2x+2
get x on one side by subtracting 2x
1x=2
2 divided by 1=2
X=2

Answer 3

5x+2=2x-10
get x on one side by subtracting 2x
3x+2=10
Add 1 to 10
3x=12
divide 12 by 3
12/3=4
X=4

Answer 4

5x - 2x = 2x +2, simplify to 3x =2x + 2, subtract 2x from both sides and you get x = 2

for the second question 5x + 2 = 2x - 10, subtract 2x from both sides, 3x + 2= -10, subtract 2 from both sides a gain and 3x = -12, therefore x = -4

so:
x = 2
and
x = -4

Answer 5

Thanks guys!

Answer 6

You're welcome!

Answer 7

One more @roz_mar23 ?

Answer 8

ur welcome:) and yea ill try to help

Answer 9

Solve for x: -2|x - 3| = -12
x = -3, x = 4.5
x = 3, x = 9
x = -3, x = 9 or
No solutions

Answer 10

it is the 3rd option, not the 2nd, sorry

Answer 11

-2|-3-3| = -12
-2|-6| = -12
-2(6) = -12
-12 = -12

-2|9-3| = -12
-2|6| = -12
-2(6) = -12
-12 = -12

Answer 12

-2[x-3]=-12

-2[-3-3]=12 so -3 isnt good -2[9-3]=-12 so 9 is good
-2[4.5-3]=-3 so 4.5 isnt good
-2[3-3]=0 so 3 isnt good
its either x=-3 and x=9
or no solution

Answer 13

Ok yes @midgetmiles is right

Answer 14

It is the 3rd option
