Answer:
No, Matt did not solve the equation correctly
Correct Answer: x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
4(x + 2) = 30
Step 1: Distribute
4x + 2 = 30 
This is his mistake, he should completely distribute 4
to x and 2
Step 2: Subtract 2 from both sides/Isolate x
4x = 28 This part is done correctly, but wrong because of Step 1
Step 3: Divide both sides by 4
x = 7 This is correct, but again, he messed up on Step 1

Let's find the correct answer to this equation:</h3><h3>4(x +2) = 30</h3>
Step 1: Distribute
Remember to distribute 4 to all terms in the parenthesis.
4(x + 2) = 4(x) + 4(2)
= 4x + 8
4x + 8 = 30
Step 2: Subtract 8 from both sides/Isolate x
Move all the terms that do not belong to x to the other side. We can do this by subtracting 8 from both sides (opposite operation of adding 8)
4x + 8 = 30
4x = 30 - 8
4x = 32
Step 3: Divide both sides by 4/Isolate x
Now we want x by itself. Since x is being multiplied by 4, we have to use the opposite operation, dividing by 4, to have x on one side by itself
4x = 32
4(x) = 32
x = 32 ÷ 4
x = 8

Factor out cosx: cosx(sinx-2)=0
cosx=0 or sinx-2=0
cosx=0 or sinx=2
the largest value of sinx is 1, sinx will never be 2, so cosx=0, x=π/2 or 3π/2 are the two answers.

Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that slope-intercept form looks like: y = mx + b
In this case, isolate the y. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Subtract 2x from both sides:
2x (-2x) + y = 6 (-2x)
y = -2x + 6
Note in the slope-intercept form: y = mx + b
y = y
m = slope
x = x
b = y-intercept
In this case, your slope is -2. All lines parallel to the given equation will also have a slope of-2.

Answer is x=-3, -1. You have two x values because they are broken down into two equations
