Answer:

There are infinite answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−x+5(x+6)=4x+30

−x+(5)(x)+(5)(6)=4x+30(Distribute)

−x+5x+30=4x+30

(−x+5x)+(30)=4x+30(Combine Like Terms)

4x+30=4x+30

4x+30=4x+30

Step 2: Subtract 4x from both sides.

4x+30−4x=4x+30−4x

30=30

Step 3: Subtract 30 from both sides.

30−30=30−30

0=0

Sarah's error is she multiplied -x times 5x but not 6

There are infinite amount of answers

Write the slope intercept form of the equation given the point (-2,4) and a slope of 3
Hitman42 [59]

Given the points:

(x, y) ==> (-2, 4)

slope, m = 3

To write the slope intercept form, use the form below:

y = mx + b

Where m = slope and b = y-intercept.

Now, substitute -2 for x, 4 for y, and m for 3 in the equation above to solve for b.

We have:

y = mx + b

4 = 3(-2) + b

4 = -6 + b

Add 6 to both sides:

4 + 6 = -6 + 6 + b

10 = b

b = 10

Therefore, the slope intercept form of the equation is:

y = 3x + 10

ANSWER:

y = 3x + 10

Write a rule for the nth term of the arithmetic sequence. Then graph the first six terms of the sequence. a6=-12 a12=-36
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

We need to find the first term.  We can use the formula

an = a1 + d(n - 1)

to solve for a1.  We already know the 12th term, a12, common difference, d, and nth sequence, n.

a12 = -36

d = -4

n = 12

-36 = a1 - 4(12 - 1)

-36 = a1 - 44

8 = a1

The first term is 8.  Therefore, your formula is

an = 8 - 4(n - 1)

an = -4n + 12

Then use this formula to graph.

n is the independent variable.

an is the dependent variable.

Your graph will be a line.

n    |       an

___________

1          8

2          4

3          0

4         -4

5         -8

6         -12
