Answer: x=-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

2(9−x)=3(x+16)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation by distribution

2(9-x)=3(x+16)\\(2)(9)+(2)(-x)=(3)(x)+(3)(16)\\18+-2x=3x+48\\-2x+18=3x+48\\

Step 2: Subtract 3x from both sides.

-2x+18-3x=3x+48-3x\\-5x+18=48

Step 3: Subtract 18 from both sides.

-5x+18-18=48-18\\-5x=30

Step 4: Divide both sides by -5.

\frac{-5x}{-5} =\frac{30}{-5} \\x=-6

I used a graphing calculator for this.

The solution my calculator got was:

(-2.625, 0.688) My calculator is very accurate, I don't think the test expects it to be like that.

Let's find the closest coordinates.

"B" is the closest.

I hope this helps!

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!! CORRECT ANSWER ONLY PLEASE!!!

Answer:  (C) shifts 6 units to the LEFT

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The vertex form of an absolute value equation is:

y = a |x - h| + k    where;

  • a is the vertical stretch (irrelevant for this problem)
  • (h, k) is the vertex

Since h represents the x-coordinate and the x-axis is left to right, then h shifts  the graph left or right.

  • If h is negative, the graph shifts to the left.  
  • If h is positive, the graph shifts to the right.

x + 6 is actually x - (-6), so h is negative and the graph shifts to the left.
