You have to distribute the parentheses first. Since there is a negative sign in front of the parentheses, it counts as a negative 1. After you distribute you should get: -5+6x=20x+12, but that is not your final answer. After you add like terms: 17x=-17. Divide 17 on both sides: x=-1. X=-1 is your final answer.
Answer:
The answer is 6 if you need an explanation I have one
Answer:
380.
Just add the two numbers together and it'll work :)
Set up a proportion: 25/100 = 50/n where n = # of teens surveyed
Simplify fraction: 1/4 = 50/n
Cross multiply: n = 200
So 200 teens were surveyed.
Step 1: Create an equation with a slope of 6
y=6x+b
Step 2: Substitute x and y by with the point (1,2) and solve the equation for b
y=6x+b
2=6(1)
2=6
2=6+b
b=-4
Step 3: Substitute -4 for b in the equation
y=6x+b
y=6x+(-4)
y=6x-4
The equation that has a slope of 6 and passes through the point (1,2) in point-slope form:
y=6x-4
