Answer:

x=7

Step-by-step explanation:

because u add the like terms so

3x+2x

which would be

5× so now its

5x+5=12+4x

-4. -4

x+5=12

-5. -5

x=7

The equation 9 y minus 6 x = 36 is written in standard form. What is the first step when writing an equivalent equation which so

enot [183]

Answer:

D. Subtract 9y from both sides of the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Divide both sides of the equation by 36.

B. Multiply both sides of the equation by 6.

C. Add 9y to both sides of the equation.

D. Subtract 9y from both sides of the equation.

Given:

9y - 6x = 36

To solve for x

Step 1: subtract 9y from both sides

9y - 6x - 9y = 36 - 9y

- 6x = 36 - 9y

Step 2: Divide both sides by -6

- 6x / -6 = (36 - 9y) / - 6

x = (36 - 9y) / - 6

The answer is

x = (36 - 9y) / - 6

What is the standard form of the linear function that passes

babunello [35]

standard form for a linear equation means

• all coefficients must be integers, no fractions

• only the constant on the right-hand-side

• all variables on the left-hand-side, sorted

• "x" must not have a negative coefficient

$(\stackrel{x_1}{4}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{1})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{2}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-2}) ~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{-2}-\stackrel{y1}{1}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{2}-\underset{x_1}{4}}}\implies \cfrac{-3}{-2}\implies \cfrac{3}{2} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{1}=\stackrel{m}{\cfrac{3}{2}}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{4})$

$\stackrel{\textit{multiplying both sides by }\stackrel{LCD}{2}}{2(y-1)=2\left( \cfrac{3}{2}(x-4) \right)}\implies 2y-2 = 3(x-4)\implies 2y-2=3x-12 \\\\\\ -3x+2y-2=-12\implies -3x+2y=-10\implies \stackrel{\times -1\textit{ to both sides}}{3x-2y=10}$
