3X=9 x=9/3 x=3
That depends which symbols are missing in the middle of the sum.
3x - 7 ≤ 9 "Seven less than" means that you subtract seven from the answer. "Three times a number" means that you multiply it. "At most" means that this is the greatest number that it can be, which is, in this case, 9. To solve this, you apply the principle rules of algebra to determine x. 3x ≤ 9 + 7 3x ≤ 16 x ≤ 16/3
solve system equation using addition method 3x-y=9 2x+y=6
you multiply by its denominator to each side. Example: 3x/5=9 now multiply by 5 to each side 3x/5 times 5 is 3x and 9 times 5 is 45 so you get 3x=45 now divide by 3 to each side and you get x=15
3x-y=9 y=3x-9
3x-11 for x=9
solve 6x - 9 = -3x + 36?
x - 7 - 9 = -3x - 16 = -3x = 13
-9
3x=9 means 3 times a number is equal to 9. Divide both sides by 3. 1) 3x/3=9/3 Dividing 3x by 3 cancels the 3 from the x. 2) 3x/3=9/3 Cleaning up the equation looks like this: 3) x=9/3 Solve the right side. 4) x=3
x . 9 =12-3x9x =12-3x9x+3x=1212x =12x =1
24 = 3x + 9 -9 -9 Subtract 9 from each side15 = 3x/3 /3 Divide 3 from each side5 = x You are left with five equals X
3x + 9 = 42 3x = 33 x = 11
3x-6 = 21 3x = 21+6 x = (21+6)/3 x = 9 You shouldn't ask us to solve your math homework.
You need an equal sign to solve for x.
