What is 7x+5=5x+17

Mathematics
1 answer:
seropon [69]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

When you have 7x+5=5x+17, you try to get the variables on one side and the constants on the other. Subtract 5x from the right and from the left: 2x+5=17. Next, subtract 5 from the left and from the right: 2x=12. The last step is to get rid of the coefficient of x and to do that divide it by the coefficient(in this case divide both sides by 2). After dividing 2x and 12 by 2 you get x=6.

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (3,-1) and (8, 9)?
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

4) y = 2x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to find the slope by using the following formula....

let (3, - 1) be (x_{1}, y_{1} ), let (8, 9) be (x_{2} ,y_{2} ), and m be the slope, then....

m = \frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1} } = \frac{9 + 1}{8 - 3} = \frac{10}{5} = 2

Now that we know the slope we can find the equation of the function by using point-slope for of the function which look like this.....

y -y_{1} = m(x - x_{1} )\\y + 1 = 2(x - 3)\\y + 1 = 2x - 6\\y = 2x - 7

vodka [1.7K]

Kyle drove x hours

Sally drove x  + 7 hours

Added together they both drove 2x + 7 hours

2x +7 = 35 hours

Subtract 7 from both sides:

2x = 28

Divide both sides by 2:

x = 14

Kyle drove 14 hours

Sally drove 21 hours
