Mathematics

Answer:

x = - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 2(x + 5) = 4 ← distribute the parenthesis by - 2

- 2x - 10 = 4 ( add 10 to both sides )

- 2x = 14 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

x = - 7

D. 5y = х – 30<br> What’s the slope intercept form
LiRa [457]

Answer:

y = \frac{1}{5}x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form is y = mx + b

To get to this form, y needs to be isolated.

So, divide each side by 5, as this will get y by itself.

5y = х – 30

y = \frac{1}{5}x - 6 is the equation in slope intercept form
