2ax-15=2(x+5)+5(x-1)

1 answer:

5 0

Perform the indicated multiplication:

2ax - 15 = 2x + 10 + 5x - 5

Group x terms together: 7x - 2ax = 5 - 15
x(7-2a) = - 10
-10
x = ----------
7-2a

Here, a cannot be 3.5, because the denominator 7-2a would be zero.

Given f (x) = -4x + 4, solve for x when f (x) = 0

Kazeer [188]

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

f(x) = -4x + 4
f(x) = 0

We are asked to solve for x when the function is equal to zero.

<u>We should have</u>: 0 = -4x + 4

<u>Solve</u>

1. Subtract 4 from both sides

0 - 4 = -4x + 4 - 4

-4 = -4x

2. Divide both sides by -4

-4 ÷ -4 = -4x ÷ 4

1 = x
