Find the value of 9x-5 given that – 2x-3=5.
Simplify your answer as much as possible.

The value of 9x - 5 is -41.

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x - 3 = 5

-2x = 5 + 3

-2x = 8

x = -4

9x - 5

= 9(-4) - 5

= -36 - 5

= -41

x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x

step-by-step explanation:

last month maria hiked the 5-mile mountain trail a number of times and she hiked the 10-mile canal trail several times. let x represent the number of times she hiked the 5-mile trail, and let y represent the number of times she hiked the 10-mile trail. if she hiked a total of 90 miles, which equation can be used to find the number of times maria hiked each trail? x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x
