11 more than five if a certain number is twenty more than 2 times of that number. what is the number?

1 answer:

4 0

11 more than five of a certain number would be written as 5x+11 and it is (means equal to) twenty more than two times that number, which would be 2x+20. So the equation would be
5x+11=2x+20
-2x -2x (get the x's on one side)
3x+11=20
-11 -11 (get the numbers on one side)
3x=9
/3 /3 (divide by 3, so you can get the x by itself)
X=3 (the number is 3)

Which of the following represents an equation of a line parallel to one whose equation is 2x + 8x = 18

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

y=-4x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

it does not show the equations that are following

but the main thing you need to know is that when two lines are parallel they have the same slope

and do you mean 2x+8y=18 not x?

edit:

answer choices: y=-4x+3, y=8x-2, y=4x+7, y=-8x+9

2y+8x=18

first change that equation to slope intercept form to find the slope

2y = -8x+18 -> y = -4x+9

slope is -4

so the answer is y=-4x+3 because it also has a slope of -4
