To solve for X you need to simplify both sides on the equation 
<span><span><span>23</span><span>(<span><span>4x</span>−5</span>)</span></span>=8

</span><span><span><span><span>(<span>23</span>)</span><span>(<span>4x</span>)</span></span>+<span><span>(<span>23</span>)</span><span>(<span>−5</span>)</span></span></span>=8 *</span>Distribute*

<span><span><span><span>8/3</span>x</span>+<span><span>−10/</span>3</span></span>=<span>8

after that you add 10/3 on both sides 

</span></span><span><span><span><span><span>8/3</span>x</span>+<span><span>−10/</span>3</span></span>+10/3</span>=<span>8+10/3</span></span><span><span><span>8/3</span>x</span>=<span>34/<span>3

finally multiply 3/8 on both sides 
</span></span></span><span><span>(<span>3/8</span>) x </span><span>(<span><span>8/3</span>x</span>)</span></span>=<span><span>(<span>3/8</span>) x </span><span>(<span>34/3</span><span>)

and your answer should be 
X= 17/4
</span></span></span>

Consider the graph of the equation y=(x–9)? – 7. Compared the graph of y=x”, how has the vertex been shifted (left/right and/or
MissTica

Answer:

Shifted to the right by 9 units, and down by 7 units

Step-by-step explanation:

y=x is the origin.

(x-9) shows that the graph has moved 9 units to the right, as what is inside the parentheses indicates the opposite direction

(you can be able to review why this is from online resources or you can ask your teacher)

the -7 shows that the graph moves 7 units down the graph, it's outside the parentheses, so it follows the same direction

let's sum up:

for this situation,

- what is inside the parentheses is the x

- what is outside the parentheses is the y

- the x-values direction shifts opposite from the sign (+/-)

- the y-values direction shifts like the sign (+/-)

So,

the vertex has been shifted to the right by 9 units, and down by 7 units compared to y=x.

3.75 + 4.75 = 8.5 hours (total)
