Example Question #24 : How To Subtract

Solve for

6x+55-(-5x)=0

Possible Answers:

-26.5

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve for , first get all of the x's by themselves on one side of the equal symbol:

6x- -5x=-55

Then combine the like terms:

6x- -5x= 6x+5x=11x

Thus, the final solution is:

11x=-55

$x= -\frac{55}{11} =-5$

Example Question #25 : How To Subtract

Simplify:

2x(10-4)

Possible Answers:

12x

18x

16x

Correct answer:

12x

Explanation:

To evaluate this problem, use the distributive property:

2x(10-4)= 20x-8x=12x

Alternatively you could have evaluated the expression within the parentheses first and then multiplied by :

(10-4)=6

$6\times2x=12x$

Example Question #26 : How To Subtract

Solve for

$\frac{18x}{3}+2=26$

Possible Answers:

$x=\frac{25}{18}$

x=-6

x=-4.5

x=4

x=-4

Correct answer:

x=4

Explanation:

To correctly solve for , organize the like terms on either side of the equal symbol:

$\frac{18x}{3}=26-2$

$\frac{18x}{3}=24$

Thus, the final solution is:

6x=24

x=4

x=16

Explanation:

To evaluate this expression for , first organize the like terms on separate sides of the equal symbol:

4x=64+8-8

Thus, the final solution is:

4x=64

$x=\frac{64}{4}=16$
