Add 4 to both sides

-104 + 4 = -2(1 + 7x)

Simplify -104 + 4 to -100

-100 = -2(1 + 7x)

Divide both sides by -2

-100/-2 = 1 + 7x

Two negatives make a positive

100/2 = 1 + 7x

Simplify 100/2 to 50

50 = 1 + 7x

Subtract 1 from both sides

50 - 1 = 7x

Simplify 50 - 1 to 49

49 = 7x

Divide both sides by 7

49/7 = x

Simplify 49/7 to 7

Switch sides

<u>Answer: x = 7</u>

patriot [66]

Answer:

I cannot answer all of this, so I will only answer what I can:

Q1: 13

Q3: 22.5

IQR: 13.5

IQR(1.5): 20.25

Q3 + IQR(1.5) = 43

Q1 - IQR(1.5) = -7.25

I don't know if my calculations are all right but I hope this helps! :)

Combine the terms by multiplying into a single fraction.

$\bf{\dfrac{5}{2}x-7=\dfrac{3}{4}x+14 }$

Find the common denominator.

$\bf{\dfrac{5x}{2}-7=\dfrac{3}{4}x+14 }$

Combine fractions with the lowest common denominator.

$\bf{\dfrac{5x(-7)}{2}=\dfrac{3}{4}x+14 }$

Multiply the numbers.

$\bf{\dfrac{5x-14}{2}=\dfrac{3}{4}x+14 }$

Combine the multiplied terms into a single fraction

$\bf{\dfrac{5x-14}{2}=\dfrac{3x}{4}+14 }$

Find the common denominator.

$\bf{\dfrac{5x-14}{2}=\dfrac{3x}{4}+\dfrac{4\cdot14}{4} }$

Combine fractions with the lowest common denominator.

$\bf{\dfrac{5x-14}{2}=\dfrac{3x+4\cdot14}{4} }$

Multiply the numbers.

$\bf{\dfrac{5x-14}{2}=\dfrac{3x+56}{4} }$

Eliminate the denominators of the fractions.

$\bf{4\cdot\dfrac{5x-14}{2}=4\cdot\dfrac{3x+56}{4} }$

Cancel the multiplied terms that are in the denominator.

$\bf{2(5x-14)=3x+56}$

To distribute.

$\bf{10x-28=3x+56 }$

Add 28 to both sides.

$\bf{10x-28+28=3x+56+28 }$

Simplify

$\bf{10x=3x+84 }$

Subtract 3x from both sides.

$\bf{10x-3x=3x+84-3x }$

Simplify

$\bf{7x=84 }$

Divide both sides by the same factor.

$\bf{x=\dfrac{84}{7} }$

Simplify

$\bf{x=12 \ \ \ === > \ \ \ Answer}$

<h3>Verification</h3>

Let x=12.

$\bf{\dfrac{5}{2}\times12-7=\dfrac{3}{4}\times12+14 }$
$\bf{\dfrac{5\times12}{2}-7=\dfrac{3}{4}\times12+14 }$
$\bf{\dfrac{60}{2}-7=\dfrac{3}{4}\times12+14 }$
$\bf{30-7=\dfrac{3}{4}\times12+14 }$
$\bf{30-7=\dfrac{3\times12}{4}+14 }$
$\bf{30-7=\dfrac{36}{4}+14 }$
$\bf{30-7=9+14 }$
$\bf{23=9+14 }$
$\bf{23=23}$
