Solve the following equation for X. X=
-2x – 3.2 – 15 = 20

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x - 3x = -5x

so then its -5x - 15

you then add 15 to both sides which gives you -5x = 35

divide -5 from each side to get the answer

-7 = x

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions

a negative exponent is translated as follows:

so, we have
