Answer:

The answer is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, follow the order of operations as laid out below.

120(2x - 2) = 240 ----> Divide both sides by 120

2x - 2 = 2 ----> Add 2 to both sides

2x = 4 ------> Divide both sides by 2

x = 2

Answer: x= 2

Step-by-step explanation:

120(2x - 2) = 240

open the bracket

240x - 240 = 240

collect like terms

240x = 240 + 240

240x = 480

Divide bothside by 240

240x/240 = 480/240

x= 2

Find the slope of the line passing through the points (6, -6) and (4, -4)
djyliett [7]

To find the slope (m), use the slope formula:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}         and plug in the two points

(4, -4) = (x₁, y₁)

(6, -6) = (x₂, y₂)

[lines usually go from left to right, so the point furthest to the left is the 1st point]

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

m=\frac{-6-(-4)}{6-4}   [two negative signs cancel each other out and become positive]

m=\frac{-6+4}{6-4}

m=\frac{-2}{2}

m = -1
