So first you multiply x and -3 by 4 to distribute, then you collect like terms so (-12+5=-7) , then you add seven to both sides and the -7+7 cancels out so you have 4x by itself, then you divide 4x/4 but it cancels out to and 8 by 4 to get x and you answer should be x=2. Hope this helped

4(x-3)+5=1
4x-12+5=1
4x-7=1
+7 +7
4x=8
4x/4 8/4

x=2

4(x - 3) + 5 = 1....distribute thru the parenthesis
4x - 12 + 5 = 1....simplify
4x - 7 = 1...add 7 to both sides
4x = 1 + 7...simplify
4x = 8...divide both sides by 4
x = 8/4
x = 2 <===

Which inequality is represented by the graph?y > -2/3x + 1y < -2/3x + 1y < -3/2x + 1y > -3/2x + 1

Tanya [424]

Answer:

$y < -\frac{3}{2}x+1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

From the graph shown,

The broken line means that the inequality sign will be either < or >.

The shaded region is to the left of the broken line. This means that $y < f(x)$ .

Now, in order to find equation of line, we need slope and y-intercept.

From the graph, the y intercept is at $(0,1)$ . So, y intercept is 1.

Also, if we consider two points $(0,1)\textrm{ and }(2,-2)$ on the line, then slope is given as:

$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}=\frac{-2-1}{2-0}=\frac{-3}{2}=-\frac{3}{2}$

Therefore, the equation of the line is given as:

$y=mx+b\\y=-\frac{3}{2}x+1$

But as the shaded region is to the left of the line,

∴ $y$ is the correct answer.
