Answer: y = 1
there no x, i think you meant y?
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
6=2(y+2)
6=(2)(y)+(2)(2)(Distribute)
6=2y+4
Step 2: Flip the equation.
2y+4=6
Step 3: Subtract 4 from both sides.
2y+4−4=6−4
2y=2
Step 4: Divide both sides by 2.
2y over 2 = 2 over 2
ANSWER
D 5
EXPLANATION
The diagonals bisect each other so,
AE=CE
This implies that
3x+4+3x+4=38
6x+8=38
Group similar terms
6x=38-8
6x=30
x=5
The slope of this line is the difference of the y values divided by the difference of the x values. Solving this give 4/-3. Then, you already know the b in y = mx+b, which is 2, because you already have the value (0, 2). So, the answer is y =
x + 2
Y-intercept = -13
x-intercept = 2.6 or 2 3/5
-13 is the y-intercept. In the equation, y=mx+b, b is the y-intercept. Looking at the equation, y=5x-13, we can see that -13 is in the place of b, therefore -13 is the y-intercept.
() is the x-intercept. To find the x-intercept, you need to replace values into the equation. Since the coordinates for the x-intercept consist of y being 0, you must replace y in the equation. with 0.
0=5x-13
Get rid of the -13 by adding it onto both sides. -13 is negative and the opposite of a negative is positive, thus making you add to get rid of -13.
0=5x-13
+13 +13
13=5x
Now you divide 5 from both sides to get rid of 5. The opposite of multiplication is division, so you must divide the 5 from 5x to isolate the x.
13/5=5x/5
2.6 or 2 3/5=x
Therefore the coordinates (2.6,0) represent the x-intercept, or just 2.6.
I hope this helped.
