X=-16 -2(2x+5)-3=-3(x-1) (-4x-10)-3=-3x+3 -4x-13=-3x+3 Move -13 to the right side by adding it to +3 and itself to cancel the original -13 out, and move -3x to the left side by adding it to -4x and itself to cancel the original -3x out -4x+3x=3+13 -1x=16 Divide -1 from both sides x=-16

- - Solve for "x"

Steps:
You need to simplify for both sides of your equation
Then add your "3x" to both of the sides of the problem
Now add 13 to both sides
and then final step is to divide both sides by "-1"

Final answer:

x= -16

Find the equation of the circle with center (4,5) which passes through the y-intercept of the line 5x-2y+6=0

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

(x-4)^2 + (y-5)^2 = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange the line equation of 5x - 2y + 6 = 0

So y = 5/2x +3

The y-intercept of the line equation is 3 as when x=0, y=3.

We know the Circle has the formula $(x-4)^2 + (y-5)^2 = ?^2$ from the question but with the intercept, we can find the entire equation as the y-intercept is (0,3) so we can substitute it into the equation to find the full equations so:

$(0-4)^2 + (3-5)^2 = ?^2$

This simplifies to:

$(-4)^2 +(-2)^2$ = $?^2$

16 + 4 = 20 = $?^2$

The answer is 20 so the equation of the circle is $(x-4)^2 + (y-5)^2 = 20$

7x^2=9+x what are the values of x Will give medal and points

DENIUS [597]

7x² = 9 + x Subtract x from both sides
7x² - x = 9 Subtract 9 from both sides
7x² - x - 9 = 0 Use the Quadratic Formula

a = 7 , b = -1 , c = -9

x = $\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}$ Plug in the a, b, and c values
x = $\frac{- (-1) \pm \sqrt{(-1)^2 - 4(7)(-9)} }{2(7)}$ Cancel out the double negative
x = $\frac{1 \pm \sqrt{(-1)^2 - 4(7)(-9)} }{2(7)}$ Square -1
x = $\frac{1 \pm \sqrt{1 - 4(7)(-9)} }{2(7)}$ Multiply 7 and -9
x = $\frac{1 \pm \sqrt{1 - 4(-63} }{2(7)}$ Multiply -4 and -63
x = $\frac{1 \pm \sqrt{1 + 252} }{2(7)}$ Multiply 2 and 7
x = $\frac{1 \pm \sqrt{1 + 252} }{14}$ Add 1 and 252
x = $\frac{1 \pm \sqrt{253} }{14}$ Split up the $\pm$
x = $\left \{ {{ \frac{1 + \sqrt{253} }{14} } \atop { \frac{1 - \sqrt{253} }{14} }} \right.$
The approximate square root of 253 is 15.905973.
x ≈ $\left \{ { \frac{1 + 15.905973}{14} } \atop { \frac{1 - 15.905973}{14} }} \right$ Add and subtract
x ≈ $\left \{ {{ \frac{16.905973}{14} } \atop { \frac{14.905973}{14} }} \right.$ Divide
x ≈ $\left \{ {{1.2075} \atop {1.0647}} \right.$ Round to the nearest hundredth
x ≈ $\left \{ {{1.21} \atop {1.06}} \right.$
