If the sum of two expressions is 3x+5 and one expression is 5x-7 what is the other expression

-2x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

If we call our other expression y, we can set up an equation tying together 3x + 5, y, and 5x - 7:

Solving for y by subtracting 5x - 7 from both sides will get us the expression we're looking for:

So the other expression in the sum is -2x + 12.

step-by-step explanation:

always plug in x. in this case, x equals 4.

i'm going to first solve 4(2+3x)

1) 4(2+3(4)) use pemdas to solve.

i'm going to multiply whats in the parenthesis first, so 3 times 4=12.

2)4 (2+12) i'm then going to multiply 4 by both numbers in the parenthesis (because multiplying comes before adding)

4 times 2= 8.   4 times 12= 48

4) (8+48)= 56 (answer)

i'm then going to solve 8+12x and plug in 4 for x.

1) 8 +12(4)

multiplying comes before adding, so i'm gonna multiply 12 and 4.

12 times 4= 48.

2) 8+48=56

both equal the same!

50
