Solve the equation: -2x+13=-7x+28

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x + 13 = -7x + 28

Subtract 13 on both sides

-2x + 13 - 13 = -7x + 28 - 13

-2x = -7x + 15

Add 7x on both sides

-2x + 7x = -7x + 7x + 15

5x = 15

Divide by 5 on both sides to isolate the variable

5x/5 = 15/5

x = 5

Hope this helped!

x ≥ 18 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

let "a number" = x

(2/3)x + 17 ≥ 29

isolate the variable (x). do the opposite of pemdas (parenthesis, exponent (& root), multiplication, division, addition, subtraction).

first, subtract 17 from both sides.

(2/3)x + 17 (-17) ≥ 29 (-17)

(2/3)x ≥ 29 - 17

(2/3)x ≥ 12

next, multiply 3/2 to both sides to isolate the x

(3/2)(2/3)x ≥ 12(3/2)

x ≥ 12(3/2)

simplify. multiply, then divide

x ≥ (12 * 3)/2

x ≥ (36)/2

x ≥ 18

x ≥ 18 is your answer
