Answer:

Distribute 8 to all terms within the parenthesis

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember to follow PEMDAS. The steps are:

 1) Distribute 8 to all terms within the parenthesis

8(x + 5) = 8(x) + 8(5) = 8x + 40

2) Isolate the x. Do the opposite of PEMDAS

8x + 40 = 56

2.5) Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other

8x + 40 (-40) = 56 (-40)

8x = 56 - 40

8x = 16

(8x)/2 = (16)/2

x = 16/2

x = 8

8 is your answer

Find the location of the x-intercept, the location of the y-intercept, and the slope for the line
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

x intercept  (15/4,0)

y intercept (0,2)

slope 8/15

Step-by-step explanation:

15y − 8x = 30.

To find the x intercept, set y =0

15(0) -8x = 30

8x = 30

Divide each side by 8 to solve for x

8x/8 = 30/8

x = 15/4

To find the y intercept, set x =0

15y -8(0) = 30

15y = 30

Divide each side by 15

15y/15 = 30/15

y =2

To find the slope we solve the equation for y

15y − 8x = 30.

Add 8x to each side

15y − 8x+8x =8x +30.

15y = 8x +30

Divide each side by 15

15y/15 = 8x/15 +30/15

y = 8/15x +2

The slope is 8/15
