X is 19 units to the left of 0. Use the drop-down menus to complete the statement about −x.

starting with:    

5 + x - 12 = 2x - 7   

5 + x - 12 - x = 2x - 7 - x (subtract x from both sides)   

5 - 12 = x - 7 (combine and cancel x's from both sides)   

5 - 12 + 7 = x - 7 + 7 (add 7 to both sides)   

0 = x (add numbers together on both sides)       

so in order for the equation to be true, x must be 0.   

trying x = -0.5   

5 + x - 12 = 2x - 7 (original equation)   

5 + -0.5 - 12 = 2(-0.5) - 7 (plug in value of x)   

5 + -0.5 - 12 = -1 - 7 (did multiplication)   

-7.5 = -8 (did addition on both sides)       

since -7.5 is obviously not equal to -8, the value of -0.5 for x is wrong.   

trying x = 0   

5 + x - 12 = 2x - 7 (original equation)   

5 + 0 - 12 = 2(0) - 7 (plug in value of x)   

5 + 0 - 12 = 0 - 7 (did multiplication)   

-7 = -7 (did addition on both sides)       

since -7 equals -7, that demonstrates that the value of 0 for x is correct.   

trying x = 1   

5 + x - 12 = 2x - 7 (original equation)   

5 + 1 - 12 = 2(1) - 7 (plug in value of x)   

5 + 1 - 12 = 2 - 7 (did multiplication)   

-6 = -5 (did addition on both sides)       

since -6 is obviously not equal to -5, the value of 1 for x is wrong.

step-by-step explanation:

answer:

some responsibilities that come with having a checking account -

1. we have to maintain check register with exactness to avoid checks being returned for insufficient funds which is called bouncing a check.

2. we need to update our check register each time we make a transaction using a convenience card. updating check register will   save   us from   overdrawing of checking account.

3. read the agreement the bank gave you when you signed up for our checking account. this includes all the fees and the minimum balance we need to keep in our account to avoid maintenance charges.  

explanation:

note : -   checking account is a transactional deposit account. we can use it to deposit and withdraw funds. money in a checking account is very liquid. it   can be withdrawn using electronic debits, automated cash machines, or checks among other methods.

i believe so, according to my "strange" way of figuring out weird math problems like this.
