Solve for x: (2/5)(x-4)=2x​

Mathematics
1 answer:
NARA [144]3 years ago
8 0

Simplify brackets

2/5(x - 4) = 2x

Simplify 2/5(x - 4) to 2(x - 4)/5

2(x - 4)/5 = 2x

Multiply both sides by 5

2(x - 4) = 10x

Divide both sides by 2

x - 4 = 5x

Subtract x from both sides

-4 = 5x - x

Simplify 5x - x to 4x

-4 = 4x

Divide both sides by 4

-1 = x

Switch sides

<u>x = -1</u>

the equation of a line is y=-1/2x+6. Write an equation in point-slope form for the same line. Explain the steps that you used.
Citrus2011 [14]
Y = -1/2x + 6.....the slope is -1/2 and the y int = 6 or (0,6)

y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = -1/2
(0,6)....x1 = 0 and y1 = 6
now we sub
y - 6 = -1/2(x - 0) <==

** You basically just label ur variables and sub them into the point slope form
