Solve for x: -x=7
Solve for x: -x=7
To isolate the variable, you must multiply both sides of the equation by -1. Remember: Multiplying a negative by a negative results in a positive.
Solve for x: x/3 - 1/4 = 20
Solve for x: x/3 - 1/4 = 20
To solve for x, you must first combine the constants on the right side of the equation. Next, you must add 1/4 to both sides of the equation, and then multiply both sides of the equation by 3.
Solve for y: 1/5(5y+20) = 4+2y
Solve for y: 1/5(5y+20) = 4+2y
To solve for y, you must first distribute the 1/5 to the expression in parentheses on the left side of the equation. Then combine like terms and move all variables to one side of the equation. Finally, solve for y by dividing both sides by -3.
Solve for y: 2y+4-y = 18+y
Solve for y: 2y+4-y = 18+y
