What is the value of x?

Since all the angles are congruent, the sides must be congruent too.

So, just have one equation on one side equal to another.

5x= 3x+6

Subtract 3x from both sides.

2x=6

Divide 2 into both sides.

x=3.

We can check this by seeing if all the sides are the same.

5(3)= 15

6(3)-5= 15

3(3)+6= 15

I hope this helps!

Solve in(5x+7)=8 round to the nearest thousandth

Ivan

Answer:

$x=\frac{1}{5}$

$x=0.2$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(5x+7)=8$

$5x+7=8$

Subtract 7 from both sides.

$5x+7-7=8-7$

Simplify.

$5x=1$

Divide both sides by 5.

$\frac{5x}{5} =\frac{1}{5}$

Simplify.

$x=\frac{1}{5}$

Decimal form:

0.2

Which equation has a graph that goes through the points (4, -6) and (0, 6)?

Ugo [173]

Answer:

$y = -3x + 6\\$

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the gradient of the equation

$\frac{Difference in y}{Difference in x} \\\\\frac{6 - - 6}{0 - 4} = \frac{12}{-4} = -3$

The equation will have the gradient -3x

Use the general equation of a line, and substitute the coordinates in to find the y-intercept.

$y = x + c\\ y = -3x + c\\$

(4, -6)

$-6 = -3(4) + c\\ -6 = -12 + c\\ -6 + 12 = c\\ c = 6$ $6 = -3(0) + c\\ 6 = 0 + c\\ c = 6$

(0, 6)

$6 = -3(0) + c\\ 6 = -0 + c\\ c = 6$

The equation of the line is

$y = -3x + 6\\$
