The answer is <em>x = 3</em>, because x = 3 has an undefined slope (m = 0 or is imaginary), and it contains 3, 0 which makes 3, 0 a solution.
The unit rate is 2 paintings per hour.
Since the 7 is in front of the parentheses you must multiply it by everything inside the parentheses. 7 times X is 7X and 7 times -2 is -14. Then you need to make the X be by itself on one side, to do that you have to add 14 to -14 to make it disappear, and also add 14 to the other side, to 28. Then you divide both sides by 7 to make X be by itself.
7(x-2)=28
7X-14=28
7x=42
X=6
Answer:
x = 5/4
Step-by-step explanation:
By combining like terms, you get 8x = 10.
Divide the 8 on both sides of the equation.
x = 10/8
This, however, can be simplified by dividing by 2. This ultimately gives us 5/4.
