-7x + 2x (add common factors)
-5x+6+21 (what happen to one side happens to the others
-5x=21 (divide by five)
x= -3

Combine like terms, 2x + -7x = -5x.
Now you have -5x + 6 = 21.
subtract 6 from both 6 and 21, the 6 cancels out and 21-6=15.
You’re left with -5x=15
Divide 5 on both sides, -5 cancels out, and you’re left with
x=-3
sorry this was messy and i hope this made sense!

Billy's plant grows at least 2 inches a month.
emmainna [20.7K]
We can assume that this growth rate can be expressed as y = mx + b as long as the slope is constant, because a quadratic or exponential formula wouldn't make much sense in this situation. If it is growing at least 2 inches a month, the slope (m) will be 2. As x (month) increases by 1 month, y (plant's height) increases by 2 inches. You could make it more, but as long as you plot the points in such a way that the slope for these points are 2 or higher, you will get the answer correct. If you have any other questions or need to clarify more about what you wanted let me know and I'll help.
