Answer:

all real numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

-(2x + 4) + x = 3x − 4x − 4

Distribute the negative sign on the left side. It is the same as having a -1 to the left of the parentheses.

-1(2x + 4) + x = 3x − 4x − 4

-2x - 4 + x = 3x - 4x - 4

Combine like terms on the left side. Combine like terms on the right side.

-x - 4 = -x - 4

Add 4 to both sides.

-x = -x

Add x to both sides.

0 = 0

You end up with a true equation. Therefore, there is an infinite number of solutions. Every real number is a solution.

What is the SLOPE of HI ? Justify your answer hurry PLEASE

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Step-by-step explanation:

since it is in the same line as DE, both have the same slope.

the slope is the ratio of "y coordinate change / x coordinate change" when going from one point on the line to another.

and so by using the coordinates of D and E

x changes by +4 (from 8 to 12).

y changes by -8 (from 32 to 24).

the slope is therefore

-8/+4 = -2

Write (1/3i)-(-6+2/3i) as a complex number in standard form

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

$6+\frac{i}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{1}{3\imath}-(-6+\frac{2}{3\imath})$

$\frac{1}{3\imath}+6-\frac{2}{3\imath}$

taking like terms together

$\frac{1}{3\imath}-\frac{2}{3\imath}+6$

taking LCM

$\frac{1-2}{3\imath}+6$

$\frac{-1}{3\imath}+6$

taking LCM

$\frac{-1+18\imath}{3\imath}$

splitting the term

$\frac{-1+18\imath}{3\imath}$

splitting the term

$-\frac{1}{3\imath}+\frac{18\imath}{3\imath}$

$-\frac{1\times3\imath}{3\imath \times \imath}+6$

$-\frac{i}{3\imath^2}+6$

we know that

$\imath^2=-1$

putting this value in above equation

$\frac{\imath}{3}+6$
