X=6
(x/6)-18=-9
X=54
12(2x+3)=4(6x+9)
12(2x+3)=4(6x+9)
24x+36=24x+36
36=36
Since 36 does equal 36 then we know there are an infinite number of solutions for this equation. Any number will make this true.
Sandy is thinking of a number is she multiplies her number by -8 and then subtracts 26, the result is 126. What is Sandy's number?
Let x=the number
-8x-26=126
-8x=152
x=-19
Sandy's number is -19
23=3x+2
23=3x+2
21=3x
7=X
6x-0.4=4.4
X=0.8
Sam solved the equation -7x+4=-59 and his answer is X=9
Do Sam's check. Is his answer correct?
-7(9)+4=-59
-63+4=-59
-59=-59
Yes, Sam's answer is correct
x=1/2
Take 9 from x and get 20
x-9=20
-8X-10=14
x=-3
32=8(2x+10)
X=-3
Subtract 9 from the product of 4 and x. The result is 11. Write the equation.
4x-9=11
-4(2-x)=3(x-4)
x=-4
One more than x times 4 is 21
4X+1-21
-16=-3X-4
4=X
3(4X-6)=60
X=6.5
3x+9y=15
3x+9y=15
3x=15-9y
x=5-3y
6(x-5)=4(x-4)+4
X=9
Half of X is the same as 13
1/2x=13
-4X-8X+17=23
X=-1/2
10=-3/8x + 4
X=-16
Solve for X
-35=10y+5x
-34=-10y+5x
10y-35=5x
2y-7=x
Mr. James buys a car with a down payment of 3,200 and pays $350 per month. If the car costs $15,800, how many months will it take pay off the car?
Let X=number of months
3200+350x=15,800
350x=12,600
x=36
The result of multiplying X and 6 is 42
6x=42
4(3x-1)=20
x=2
