here are the steps i'd take. if anything is unclear, let me know and i can explain!

-2(x+12)=-x-14

let's open the parentheses on the left side

-2x-24=-x-14

and let's move variables to one side and numbers to the other.

-x=10

let's multiply each side by -1 to get positive x

x=-10

hope i helped! good luck.

Answer: if you want to know what x is then x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

−2(x+12)=−x−14

Use the distributive property to multiply −2 by x+12.

−2x−24=−x−14

Add x to both sides.

−2x−24+x=−14

Combine −2x and x to get −x.

−x−24=−14

Add 24 to both sides.

−x=−14+24

Add −14 and 24 to get 10.

−x=10

Multiply both sides by −1.

x=−10

The ordered pairs model an exponential growth function. (−1,21.875), (0,35), (1,56), (2,89.6) What is the function equation? f(x
Karolina [17]

Answer:

Given the ordered pairs, the exponential growth function would be represented by f(x)=35(1.6)^x.

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential growth functions are represented by the following equation: f(x)=ab^x, where 'a'=initial value; 'b'=rate of growth; 'x'=independent value or time.  Given the points, we see that the values of 'x' increase by 1 each time and dividing two 'y' values (35/21.875; 56/35; 89.6/56) gives us a change of 1.6.  Rate is the change in y/the change in x, or 1.5/1, which is the value of 'b'. When 'x' is equal to 0, the value of 'y' is 35, so this represents the initial value, or 'a'.  Plugging in these values will give us the final equation f(x)=35(1.6)^x.

Find the slope of the line that contains (6,-4) and (-4,-4)
frez [133]

Answer:y = -4

Step-by-step explanation: In order to find the slope by these two points, (6,-4), and (-4,-4), you must use the slope formula:

rise/run, which is this case, is y2-y1 / x2 - x1 <--- this is the slope formula

Let 6 be x2, -4 be x1, y2 be -4, and y1 being -4, plug these numbers in.

-4-(-4) / 6- (-4)

-4 + 4/ 6 +4

0/10 The slope of the line is zero, with a y-axis at -4. We know this because there is a zero in the final result and the y- coordinate between (6,-4) and (-4,-4) do not change in the slightest.

The final answer is then y = -4
