The first step was the combine the like terms; in this example he is subtracting the 3x on both sides of the =.

If you were to solve the equation it would look like this:

2x+6=3x-8
-3x -3x

-x+6=-8
-6 -6

-x=-14
/-1 /-1

x=14

GEOMETRY HELP PLEASE!!! FAST!!!
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

Rotation of 90° counterclockwise about the origin  and a translation 2 units right

Explanation:

A rotation 90° counterclockwise maps each point (x, y) to (-y, x).  This means our points would be:

A(-4,3)→(-3, 4); B(-1,3)→(-3, -1); C(-2,1)→(-1, -2)

A translation 2 units right will add 2 units to the new x-coordinates; this gives us

(-3, 4)→(-1, 4); (-3, -1)→(-1, -1); and (-1, -2)→(1, -2)

These are the points in the image, so this is the correct set of transformations.

A bookstore had 90 copies of a magazine. Yesterday, it sold 1/6 of them. Today, it sold 1/5 of what remained. How many copies do
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

60 copies

Step-by-step explanation:

first you take 1/6th of the original 90 copies which is 15 and subtract that from the 90, you are left with 75 copies which is how many they had left at the end of yesterday. then you take 1/5th of the 75 copies that are left which is also 15 and you subtract that from 75 and you get 60. that's why at the end of today there are 60 copies left.

(5,1); m=2 write an equation of the line
gtnhenbr [62]
Hey there! :) 

To find an equation of a line that passes through (5, 1) and has a slope of 2, we'll need to plug our known variables into the slope-intercept equation.

Slope-intercept equation : y = mx + b ; where m=slope, b=y-intercept

Since we're already given the slope, all we really need to do is find the y-intercept.

We can do this by plugging our known values into the slope-intercept equation.

y = mx + b

Since we're trying to find "b," we need to plug in "y, m, x" into our formula.

(1) = (2)(5) + b

Simplify.

1 = 10 + b

Subtract 10 from both sides.

1 - 10 = b

Simplify.

-9 = b

So, our y-intercept is 9! 

Now, we can very simply plug our known values into slope-intercept form.

y = mx + b

y = 2x - 9 → final answer

~Hope I helped!~
