The equation 3i + 2i - 7 = 18 is simplified as 5i - 7 = 18.
To isolate i, we add 7 to both sides:
5i - 7 + 7 = 18 + 7
5i = 25
Then, we divide both sides by 5:
5i/5 = 25/5
i = 5
Therefore, the solution to the equation 3i + 2i - 7 = 18 is i = 5.
match the equation with its solution:
3i+2i-7=18

thank you, same answer choices, but a different question
3(2i-7)=15
3(2i-7)=15
To solve the equation 3(2i-7) = 15, let's begin by distributing the 3 to the terms inside the parentheses:
6i - 21 = 15
Now, to isolate the variable i, we will add 21 to both sides of the equation:
6i - 21 + 21 = 15 + 21
6i = 36
Lastly, we divide both sides of the equation by 6:
6i/6 = 36/6
i = 6
Therefore, the solution to the equation 3(2i-7) = 15 is i = 6.
6i - 21 = 15
Now, to isolate the variable i, we will add 21 to both sides of the equation:
6i - 21 + 21 = 15 + 21
6i = 36
Lastly, we divide both sides of the equation by 6:
6i/6 = 36/6
i = 6
Therefore, the solution to the equation 3(2i-7) = 15 is i = 6.
what about 3i+5=2i-7
To solve the equation 3i + 5 = 2i - 7, we want to isolate the variable i.
First, let's bring all the terms with i to one side of the equation by subtracting 2i from both sides:
3i - 2i + 5 = 2i - 2i - 7
This simplifies to:
i + 5 = -7
Next, we will isolate i by subtracting 5 from both sides of the equation:
i + 5 - 5 = -7 - 5
This simplifies to:
i = -12
Therefore, the solution to the equation 3i + 5 = 2i - 7 is i = -12.
First, let's bring all the terms with i to one side of the equation by subtracting 2i from both sides:
3i - 2i + 5 = 2i - 2i - 7
This simplifies to:
i + 5 = -7
Next, we will isolate i by subtracting 5 from both sides of the equation:
i + 5 - 5 = -7 - 5
This simplifies to:
i = -12
Therefore, the solution to the equation 3i + 5 = 2i - 7 is i = -12.
