6. What steps would you take to solve the equation: 3x + 2 = 23 *
7. What steps would you take to solve the equation: -2y - 7 = 3 *
8. True or false: in order to solve the following equation, you would first subtract by 4, then multiply by 5/1 *
4+1/5=-1

To solve 3x + 2 = 23 you must:

Subtract 2 from both sides so like this 3x+2−2=23−2  and get 3x=21.

Now Divide both sides by 3 so 3x/3=21/3. Mainly divide 21/3 and get 7.

To solve  -2y - 7 = 3 you must:

Add 7 to both sides so like this −2y−7+7=3+7  and get −2y=10.

Now Divide both sides by -2 so -2y/-2=10/-2. Mainly divide 10/-2 and get 5.

False

93.8

step-by-step explanation:

lets say, first number = x

second number = 3x+7

total = 49

(x)+(3x+7)= 49

4x+7 = 49

4x = 42

x = 42/4

x= 10.5

x= 10.5

3x+7 = 3(10.5)+7 = 93.8

mr. flanders’ class sold 47 doughnuts and   mr. rodriquez’s class sold 38 cartons of milk

step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of doughnuts sold by mr. flanders’ class and y be the number of cartons sold by mr. rodriquez’s class.

1. together, the classes sold 85 items, then

x+y=85.

2. both classes earn earned $104.49 for their school. if doughnuts were sold for $1.35 each, then x doughnuts costed $1.35x. if cartons of milk were sold for $1.08 each, then y cartons costed $1.08y. hence,

1.35x+1.08y=104.49.

3. solve the system of two equations:
