3 x - 2 = 4 x + 9/3

Multiply both sides of the equation by 3

9 x - 6 = 4x + 9

Move variable to the left-hand side and change its sign

9 x - 4 x - 6 = 9

Collect like terms

5 x = 9 + 6

Divide both side of the equation by 5

X = 3

And you answer is X = 3

Thanks :)

No. No. It is not linear because the slope has to be able to be plugged in to any x, y coordinates and be placed on the line.

When 4 is added to three times of a number, the answer is the same as subtracting 2 from the number. What is the number ?

Orlov [11]

Answer:

- 3

Step-by-step explanation:

let n be the number , then

3n + 4 = n - 2 ( subtract n from both sides )

2n + 4 = - 2 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

2n = - 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )

n = - 3

The number is - 3

There are 24 students in Ms. Messing's class 6 more students walk to school then ride their bikes thus number of students who ri

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Walk = x + 6
Bike = x
Driven = x

x + x + x + 6 = 24
combine like terms

3x + 6 = 24
subtract 6 from both sides

3x = 18
divide both sides by 3 to isolate x

x = 6

Walk = x + 6 = 6 + 6 = 12

12 students walk to school.
