Question

How do you solve this problem -4X+5=-54+41?

Answer 1

Move all like terms to one side.

-4x = -54 + 41 - 5

Simplify by collecting like terms (add them up).

-4x = -18

Divide both sides by -4 to solve for x.

  x = (-18)/(-4)

  x = 9/2

Answer 2

first, do -54+41 (-13)

next,subtract 5 from each side

now the problem looks like this:

-4x=-18

now divide -4 from each side. u have the answers, which is:

x=-4.5

Answer 3

-4x+5= -54+41

add - 54 and 41 together

subract 5 from both sides

divide by -4

Answer 4

- 4x = - 54 + 41 - 5

- 4x = - 18

4x = 18

x = 4½

Answer 5

- 4x + 5 = - 54 + 41

4x = 18

x = 18/4 or 9/2 or 4 1/2

Answer: x = 9/2 or 4 1/2

Proof:

- 4(9/2) + 5 = - 54 + 41

- 18 + 5 = - 13

- 13 = - 13

Answer 6

-4x+5=-54+41

-4x+5=-13

-4x=-18

x=4.5

Answer 7

I'll assume you mean solve for x:

-4x + 5 = -54 + 41

-4x + 5 = -13

-4x = -13 - 5

-4x = -18

x = -18 / -4

x = 4.5

Answer 8

4x + 5 = -54 + 41

-4x + 5 = -13

-4x = -13 - 5

-4x = -18

x = -18 / -4

x =9/2 or 4 1/2

Answer 9

-4x + 5 = -54 + 41

Simplify the left side

-4x + 5 = -13

subtract 5 from both sides

-4x = -18

divide by -4

x = -18/-4

x = 4.5
