Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the slope formula to help complete this question

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

-1 = ( -6-0)/(x- -3)

-1 = -6/ (x+3)

Multiply each side by (x+3)

-x-3 = -6

Add 3 to each side

-x -3+3 = -6+3

-x =-3

Multiply each side by -1

x = 3

Answer:

  x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The given slope and point can be used to write the equation of the line using the point-slope form. To find x for a given y, we can solve that equation.

__

<h3>setup</h3>

The point-slope form of the equation for a line is ...

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

For (h, k) = (-3, 0), and m = -1, the equation is ...

  y -0 = -1(x -(-3))

  y = -x -3

We want x when y = -6, so this becomes ...

  -6 = -x -3

<h3>solution</h3>

Adding x+6 to both sides of the equation, we get ...

  (x +6) -6 = -x -3 +(x +6)

  x = 3 . . . . . . . simplify

svp [43]

Answer: 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation to solve this problem is 40 + 2x = 25 + 5x

Now, to solve for x you first need to subtract 25 from each side:

15 + 2x = 5x

Next, subtract 2x from each side:

15 = 3x

Finally, divide both sides by 3:

5 = x
