Sandwich cost $7.70 and the soda costs $2.20.
Hi!
Our goal is to isolate x on one side by doing the same operation on both sides.
First let's use the distribution property.
-2 x 6 = -12
-2 x 3 = -6
-12x - 6 = -27 - 5x
Add 6 to both sides
-12x - 6 + 6 = -27 + 6 - 5x
-12x = -21 - 5x
Add 5x to both sides
-12x + 5x = -21 - 5x + 5x
-7x = -21
Divide by -7 on both sides
-7x/-7 = -21/-7
x = 3
The answer is x = 3
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have the same slope. The slope of the given line is 3. The easy way to do this, the one that uses our logical brains as opposed to our mathematical brain, tells us that since there is only one choice that has a given slope of 3, that is the one that we want. The second choice down is the only one that has a slope of 3.
Mathematically,
and
and
so
y = 3x - 7 (the second choice)
