Hi!

<h3>Let's do the first step (add 2x). </h3>

5 + 3x + 2x = -2x + 2x + 9

<em>5 + 5x = 9</em>

<h3>Our goal is to isolate x on one side, so the next step would be to subtract 5 (or add -5).</h3>

5 + -5 + 5x = 9 + -5

<u><em>5x = 4</em></u>

<h2>The answer is B. add -5</h2><h3><em>And if you want to finish solving, you would divide by 5 on both sides.</em></h3>

5x/5 = 4/5

x = 0.8

Hope this helps! :)

Please help me I have no clue what to do
Effectus [21]

Answer: A circle is 360° all the way around; therefore, if you divide an arc's degree measure by 360°, you find the fraction of the circle's circumference that the arc makes up. Then, if you multiply the length all the way around the circle (the circle's circumference) by that fraction, you get the length along the arc.

Can someone help me.
Sauron [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: 20°

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

m∠XZY = 40

m∠XZB = 20

Process

1.- Find the measure of ∠ XAB

   ∠XAB = 40°   because AB ║ YZ

2.- Find the measure of ∠ZAB

     ∠ZAB + ∠XAB = 180

    ∠ZAB = 180 - ∠XAB

    ∠ZAB = 180 - 40

    ∠ZAB = 140°

3.- Find the measure of ∠ABZ

    The sum of the internal angles in a triangle equals 180°

     ∠AZB + ∠ZAB + ∠ABZ = 180

     20° + 140° + ∠ABZ = 180

     ∠ABZ = 180 - 20 - 140

    ∠ABZ = 20°

Write the equation of the line with the given slope and y- intercept. 1.Slope is -2 and a y-intercept of 5.
Monica [59]

Since the slope is -2, then m=-2. Since the y-intercept is 5, b=5. Then, we can create the equation: y=-2x+5


Since the slope is \frac{3}{4}, then m=\frac{3}{4}. Since the y-intercept is -3, b=-3.

Then, we can create the equation: y=\frac{3}{4}x-3

Plzz help me im giving 12 points

This Is very simple.

30m + 50 = 20m + 100

This is the new equation needed to solve for m.
first we must isolate "m".

30m + 50 = 20m + 100
        - 50             - 50

30m = 20m + 50
-20m   -20m

10m = 50

divide both sides by 10 to isolate "m".

m = 5

hope this helps!
