Answer:
1. 3x-5=22
+5
3x=27
divide both sides by 3
x=9
2. 2k-6+3k=9
5k (combine like terms) +6
5k=15
divde by 5
k=3
3. 2(4x-3)=9x+4
distribute= 8x-6=9x+4
-9x & +6
-x=10
divide by -1 (that's what x is essentially in that form)
x=-10
4. -84=7p
divide by 7
p=-12
Hello Blake,
Here is the answers and solutions for your set of problems.
1. 3x - 5 = 22
