A. This is the original equation: 2x + 3 - 1 = x + 5

b. 2x + 2 = x + 5 ← combined like terms on left side
2x + 2 - 2 = x + 5 - 2 ← used inverse operation to collect constants on right side
2x = x + 3 ←simplified each side
2x - x = x - x + 3 ←used inverse operation to collect variable terms on left side
x = 3 ← simplified each side
answer x = 3

c. 2(3) + 3 - 1 = 3 + 5
6 + 3 - 1 = 8
9 - 1 = 8
8 = 8

Determine the equation of the line, written in slope-intercept form, that passes through the points (1,1) and (5,−1).

Answer:

y=-1/2x+3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(-1-1)/(5-1)

m=-2/4

m=-1/2

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-1=-1/2(x-1)

y=-1/2x+1/2+1

y=-1/2x+1/2+2/2

y=-1/2x+3/2

Is that the whole question? It does not specify, so that means there is a 50/50 chance for either.

Find two complex numbers that have a sum of i10 a different of -4and a product of -29

lianna [129]

<h2>-2+5i and 2+5i</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the complex numbers be $a+ib\textrm{ and }c+id$ .

Given, sum is $10i$ , difference is $-4$ and product is $-29$ .

$(a+c)+i(b+d)=10i$ ⇒ $a+c=0,b+d=10$

$(a-c)+i(b-d)=-4$ ⇒ $a-c=-4,b-d=0$

$a=-2,c=2,b=5,d=5$

$(a+ib)(c+id)=(-2+5i)(2+5i)=-4-25=-29$

Hence, all three equations are consistent yielding the complex numbers $-2+5i\textrm{ and }2+5i$ .
