I hope this helps you

0,2x+0,2+0,5x= -0,3x+1,2

0,7x+0,3x=1,2-0,2

x=1

Answer:

The value of the x is 1 .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given the expression in the question.

0.2(x + 1) + 0.5x = –0.3(x – 4)

Now first open the bracket

0.2x + 0.2 + 0.5x = –0.3x – 4 × -0.3

0.2x + 0.2 + 0.5x = –0.3x + 1.2

0.2x + 0.5x + 0.3x = 1.2 - 0.2

1.0x = 1.0

$x = \frac{1.0}{1.0}$

x = 1

Therefore the value of the x is 1 .

What is the slope of a line that passes (4, 10) and (1, 10)

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

The slope of the a straight line is given by the ratio of the Rise to the Run

of the line. The rise between the given points is zero.

The slope of the line that passes through the points (4, 10) and (1, 10) is zero.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given points are; (4, 10) and (1, 10)

The slope of a line, m, is given by the following formula;

Where;

(x₁, y₁) = (4, 10) and (x₂. y₂) = (1, 10), we get;

The slope of the line that passes through the points (4, 10) and (1, 10) is 0.

In Exercises 1-16, solve the inequality. Graph the solution<br> 1. 3y ≤ -9

murzikaleks [220]

By solving the inequality we get $y\leq -3$

What is graphing the inequality?

The act of illustrating which area of the number line contains values that will "satisfy" the specified inequality is known as graphing the inequality. Take a look at the first inequality, "x > -5." The numbers that can be used to substitute x in our inequality to produce a true statement can be shown on a graph of our inequality.

$3y\leq -9$
