Find the opposite of adding 15. So it would be subtracting 15. So subtract 15 on both sides. So it would have 2/3x on the left and then 2 on the other side. (2/3x=2) Now find the opposite of multiplying 2/3. It is dividing 23/3. So divide 23/3 on both sides. So multiply 2/3 times 1/2. It would equal 3. x = 3
Hope this helps. :-)
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. Find the slope (by using the slope-formula)
m = slope





Step 2. Write the equation (using the slope and the points)
Here's how to do it:
Slope-intercept Formula
whrere m = slope and b = y-intercept
Plug in the slope into the Slope-intercept Formula

Find the y-intercept (b) by using a point and substituting their x and y values

Point: (3, 7)




Step 3. Write the equation in Slope-intercept form


Canton: 7,720 and increases at a rate of 80 people per year.
Holly Spring: 3,200 and increases at rate of 120 people per year.
Let x be the number of years.
Canton = 7,720 + 80x
Holly Spring = 3,200 + 120x
7,720 + 80x = 3,200 + 120x
80x - 120x = 3,200 - 7720
-40x = -4520
x = -4520 / -40
x = 113
It would take 113 years before the populations are equal.
7,720 + 80x = 3,200 + 120x
7,720 + 80(113) = 3,200 + 120(113)
7,720 + 9,040 = 3,200 + 13,560
16,760 = 16,760
a triangle needs to have 180 degrees in all.
65 + 65 = 130
180 - 130 = 50
x = 50 degrees
