Answer:
x=-5
Step-by-step explanation:
4(x-5)+2=x+3 As the first step says, distribute the 4 (multiply all numbers in the parentheses by 4).
4x-20+2=x-3 Combine like terms. For example, the -20 and 2 are like terms because they are both their own numbers and not attached to a variable.
4x-18=x-3 Subtract x from each side. Now, we can get x to only one side.
<u>-x -x</u>
3x-18=-3 Add 18 to both sides.
<u>+18 +18</u>
3x=-15 Divide both sides by 3.
<u>/3 /3</u>
x=-5
I hope this helped you!! Have a great day c:
Answer:
1. J because it's a straight line
2. 225
however I only got 4 marks not 5.
Step-by-step explanation:
-10/3 is smaller and 1 is bigger.
To complete the square you must split the b term in half, then square that answer.
6 is the b term, half of 6 is 3, 3 squared is 9. You will add 9 to both sides of x^2 + 6x = 15
x^2 + 6x + 9 = 24
