-3x - 1 = 20 + 4x
1) the first thing you want to do is have the variable(x) in one side of the equation. so subtract so add -3x to 4x.
-1 = 20 + 7x
2) now you want to isolate the variable so subtract 20 to -1.
-21 = 7x
3) to solve for x you need to divide by 7 on both sides and 7x divided by 7 is one or just x and whatever you do to one side you must do to the other -21 divided by 7 is -3
x = -3
(20 - x)/5
20
To solve for x, we'd have to know what this expression equals.
y=16 x= -4
-7m + 20 = -17m - 1010m = -30m = -3
68
-3x + 5 = 20 -3x = 15 x = -5
Better formatting is cos(2x+20)=-0.5
20 = 400
To solve this one, subtract 50 from 180 and you'll have your answer.
balance the equation 3x-x=20-6 3x-x=2x 20-6=14 2x=14 x=7
3x^2=-20 so x^2=-20/3 this has no real roots but the plus of minus i(square root of 20/3) is a solution if we allow complex numbers.
