You have to keep order of operations in mind.
1. Take care of the parentheses; distribute.
-3+6x-3=-20-8x
Simplified: 6x-6=-20-8x
2. Isolate the x variable.
Add 8x to both sides and add 6 to both sides.
14x=-14
3. Solve for x.
Divide by 14 on both sides.
x=-1
Well i’m not sure on this but i got 18 for my answer instead of 10 so if u need any mode help im here
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + c
Where
m = slope
c = intercept
The equation of the given line is
y = 47x - 3
Comparing with the slope intercept equation, m = 47
If two lines are parallel, it means that they have equal slope. This means that the slope of the line passing through (14, 4) is 47
We would determine the intercept, c by substituting m= 47, x = 14 and y = 4 into y = mx + c. It becomes
4 = 47× 14 + c
4 = 658 + c
c = 4 - 658 = - 654
The equation becomes
y = 47x - 654
So,
0.2(n - 6) = 2.8
Distribute.
0.2n - 1.2 = 2.8
Add 1.2 to both sides.
0.2n = 4
Divide both sides by .2.
n = 20
Check.
0.2(20 - 6) = 2.8
Simplify inside parentheses.
0.2(14) = 2.8
Multiply.
2.8 = 2.8 This checks.
S = {2.8}
