For this case we must simplify the following expression:

So, if we apply distributive property to the terms within parentheses we have:

We simplify taking into account that:
- Equal signs are added and the same sign is placed.
- Different signs are subtracted and the major sign is placed.

Answer:

5(w - 1) - 2 = 5w + 7
5w - 5 - 2 = 5w + 7
5w - 7 = 5w + 7
5w - 5w = 7 + 7
0 = 14 (incorrect)
there are no solutions to this system...0 solutions
Maria do 1/2 work in 1 hour
Sasha do 1/3 work in 1 hour
Thus,
1/2+1/3=5/6 work in 1 hour
5/6 work in = 1 hour
1 work in =6/5=1.2 hours =72 minutes
Given:


Multiply both sides by 3/2, we get

Cancel out the common multiples, we get



The solution of the given equation is

or
Slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
slope = (-3 -4)/(1 - 1)
slope -7/0
This is an undefined slope because the denominator is 0.
This would be a vertical line.
