4x + 2 = 2x + 5 Subtract through by 2x 2x + 2 = 5 Subtract through by 2 2x = 3 Divide through by 2 x = 1.5 ■
8x-7 plus 2x equals 6 plus 5x plus 2?
There is no solution to: 4(2x + 2) + 12 > 1004(2x + 2) + 12 > 100 For 4(2x + 2) + 12 > 1004(2x + 2) + 12 to have a solution x < -1 which makes 1004(2x + 2) + 12 < 12, BUT 1004(2x + 2) + 12 is supposed to be greater than 100. Perhaps there is a missing operator in the digits of 1004?
xy plus 2x plus 4y plus 8 or (xy+2x) + (4y+8) or x(y+2) + 4(y+2) or (x+4)(y+2)
2x + 2 = 4x -1 2x = 3 x = 1.5
