7X - 9X + 2X = 1 - 5 + 4

7X - 11X = 1 - 9

- 4X = -8

X = -8 (divided) -4

X = 2

I’m also confused. Idk what you want. But im guessing its solving for x. If so, I will walk you through it.

7x-4=-2x+1+9x-5 first simplify it
7x-4=7x-4

Now you get something to where x has infinite solutions.

Seriously. Try to fill in x with any number and the problem will be correct.

The reason it works is because theres no possible way you can find what x is and the rest of the problem is still equal.

We want to try to get x all on one side but that’s impossible with this equation. So we just say x has infinite solutions.

***the answer is x has infinite solutions***

Brainliest my answer if it helps you out?

Find the distance between the two points. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary. (6, 11), (0, 3) a. 10 b. 14 c. 15 d. 100

Answer: option a

Step-by-step explanation:

You must apply the formula for calculate the distance between the two points. which is shown below:

$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Therefore, keeping on mind that the points given in the problem are (6, 11), (0, 3), when you substitute values into the formula shown above, you obtain that the distance between these two points is the following:

$d=\sqrt{(0-6)^2+(3-11)^2}\\d=10$
