Question

3x + x + x + x - 3 – 2 = 7+ x + x
In the equation above, what is the value of x?

  1. fraction numerator negative 5 over denominator 7 end fraction
  2. 1
  3. 12 over 7
  4. 3

hintHint:

We solve this problem by doing some simple algebraic manipulations.
 

The correct answers are: 1, 3


    Step 1 of 1:
    The equation, given here, is
    3x + x + x + + x – 3 – 2 = 7 + x + x
    ⇒ 3x + 3x - (3 + 2) = 7 + 2 x
    ⇒ 6x – 5 = 7 + 2x
    ⇒ 6x - 2x = 7 + 5
    ⇒ 4x = 12
    ⇒ x = 3
    Final Answer:
    The value of x is— D) 3.

    Lourdes plans to jog at least 1.5 miles . Write and solve an inequality to find X, the number of hours Lourdes will have to jog.

    A distance is generally the amount of space or length that separates two people, objects, or situations. For example, four meters separate two streetlight poles, for instance, as a distance measure.
    Where Distance = time × speed
    Example: We kept a safe distance between two objects. At the same time, we notice a new space between object one and object 2. Although once close, there was a significant gap between the objects. However, wishes to distance themself from the object's former boss.

    Solve inequality : 3x-2>4-3x and then graph the solution.

    Note:
    When we have an inequality with the symbols< or > , we use dotted lines to graph them. This is because we do not include the end point of the inequality.
