Question

Select the correct answer. Use a graphing tool to solve the equation for x. -4x-1= 5x + 4

Answer 1

As per the system of linear equations concept, the solution of x is -1.282

Linear equations:

Linear equation is referred as the algebraic equation in which each term has an exponent of 1 and when graphed, the result is always a straight line.

Given,

Here we have the equations -4x - 1 = 5ˣ + 4

Now, we need to find the value of x by using the graph.

In order to plot the graph for the given linear equation,

First, we have to split the equation into two,

Like the following:

y = -4x - 1

y = 5ˣ + 4

Now, we plot the graph of both equations

Then we get the graph like the following.

Where the red line represents the equation y = -4x - 1 and the green line represents the equation y = 5ˣ + 4.

While we looking into the graph, we have identified the solution is,

x = -1.282

Therefore, the solution of x is -1.282
