-5x-5= 3x+19

= > -5x-3x= 19+5

= > -8x= 24

= >-x=24/8

= >x= -3

-5x - 5 = 3x + 19

---Move the x's to one side

-5x - 3x - 5 = 3x - 3x + 19

-8x - 5 = 19

---Isolate the -8x by removing the -5 from the left side

-8x - 5 + 5 = 19 + 5

-8x = 24

---Divide both sides by -8 to get x by itself

x = -3

Hope this helps!

Give the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line that is perpendicular to 7x + 3y = 18 and contains P(6, 8).
Olegator [25]
Rearrange the equation into slope intercept form

7x+3y=18

3y=-7x+18

y=-7x/3+18/3 so the slope of the reference line is -7/3

To be perpendicular to this line the slope must be the negative reciprocal of this...mathematically m1*m2=-1.  So the slope of our perpendicular line is:

-7m/3=-1

-7m=-3

m=3/7 so our line so far is:

y=3x/7+b, using point (6,8) we can solve for b, the y-intercept

8=3(6)/7+b

8=18/7+b

56/7-18/7=b

38/7=b so our line is:

y=3x/7+38/7 or if you prefer

y=(3x+38)/7
