If Hank is right, how many horses does the Lasy Z have? First define you variable?

Lets see how smart you biatches are?

I didnt look at anyones answers but here is what i got:

5x-23=2x+58

3x=81

x=27

Discusses how Math is given top priority in the Russian school system. By grade seven they are doing two hours a week of geometry and three a week of algebra.

Farther down it says in grades 5-9 they learn two variable expressions, nonlinear equations, etc etc.

I'm embarassed to admit I can't solve that damn problem on the first page. I hate math so fucken much. Those Russians are damn smart.

Need some tutoring?
