How do you solve linear equations using the distributive property?

Solving two-step linear equations using distributive property: a (x+b)=c;aleft ( {x + b} ight) = ca (x+b)=c Solving linear equations using multiplication and division Solving two-step linear equations: ax+b=cax + b = cax+b=c, xa+b=c {x over a} + b = cax+b=c

Step-by-step explanation:

solving equations using distributive property. We'll guide you through two ways that the following question can be solved.

Question: 11.32 = 8(0.61 + x)

Solution 1:

11.32 = 8(0.61+x)

Divide both side by 8, you get 1.415 = 0.61 +x

Minus both side by 0.61, 0.805 = x

In this solution, we first try to move all the non-x terms over to one side. The first step of dividing both sides by 8 helps us move the 8 from the right side to the left side. This allows us to get rid of the parentheses too as the terms no longer have to be multiplied out (there's nothing to multiply them with). Then, in order to move 0.61 to the left side, we'll minus it from both sides. In the end, we'll get that x ultimately equals 0.805.

Solution 2:

11.32 = 8(0.61+x)

Open up the right side, you get 11.32 = 4.88+8x

Minus both side by 4.88, you get 6.44 = 8x

Divide both side by 8, you get 0.805 = x

In solution 2, we're truly using the distributive property. We're going to distribute 8 into the terms in the parentheses, which are "+0.61" and "+x". This gives us 4.88 + 8x on the right side of the equation. Then we can move over 4.88 to the left side with the rest of the non-x terms by minusing it from both sides. Lastly, divide both sides by 8 to move the 8 over to the left side and you'll find that x = 0.805. Both methods will bring you to the same correct answer.

step-by-step explanation:

through just a quick inspection, one can see that the graph of this cubing function starts in quadrant iii and ends in quadrant i.   when x = 0, y = 3, so the y-intercept is (0, 3).
