5(4x - 10) + 10x = 4(2x - 3) + 2(x - 4)
20x - 50 + 10x = 8x - 12 + 2x - 8
30x - 50 = 10x - 20
30x - 10x = -20 + 50
20x = 30
x = 3/2 <==
The slope can sometimes be called the gradient, and the equation for the gradient is (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1). So therefore, you'd do: (-8 - 7)/(4 - -5) which is (-15)/9) which is -1 2/3 or -1.6 (recurring), which is your answer. I hope this helps! Let me know if I've confused you :)

when x is 4:

therefore:

Answer: 72
Step-by-step explanation:
First plug in 7 for x
5(14)
Then multiply
70
Next plug 2 in for y
2(1)
Multiply
2
Lastly, add 70 and 2 together.
72.
Hope this helps.
