Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
<em>Identify</em>
3x + 5(2 + x) = 4x - 7
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- [Distributive Property] Distribute 5: 3x + 10 + 5x = 4x - 7
- [Addition] Combine like terms: 8x + 10 = 4x - 7
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 4x on both sides: 4x + 10 = -7
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 10 on both sides: 4x = -17
- [Division Property of Equality] Divide 4 on both sides: x = -17/4
Create a system of equations
x + y = 123
5x + y = 343
I use substitution
y = 123 - x
5x + 123 - x = 343
4x + 123 = 343
4x = 220
x = 55
Plug in
x + y = 123
55 + y = 123
y = 68
Check
5x + y = 343
5(55) + 68 = 343
275 + 68 = 343
343 = 343
