Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

We can subtract the right side of the equation to get ...

\dfrac{3}{4}x+3-2x-\left(-\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{1}{2}x+5\right)=0\\\\x\left(\dfrac{3}{4}-2-\dfrac{1}{2}\right)+\left(3+\dfrac{1}{4}-5\right)=0\quad\text{collect terms}\\\\-\dfrac{7}{4}x-\dfrac{7}{4}=0\quad\text{simplify}\\\\x+1=0\quad\text{multiply by $-\frac{4}{7}$}\\\\x=-1

Checking by subsitution, we have ...

... (3/4)(-1) +3 -2(-1) = -1/4 +(1/2)(-1) +5

... -3/4 +3 +2 = -1/4 -1/2 +5

... 4 1/4 = 4 1/4 . . . . . answer checks OK

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-2, 7) and (2,-5)?
Deffense [45]

Answer:

Denote that line: y = ax + b

Line passes (-2, 7) and (2,-5):

=> -2a + b =7

=>  2a + b = -5

Add both side of above equations:

=> 2b = 2

=> b = 1

=> a = (-5 - 1)/2 = -3

=> Slope a = -3

Hope this helps!

you multiply it as you would regular numbers and then you count the places that the decimal is in front of. in this case it would be 2 numbers, then in the number you got by multiplying, move the decimal 2 places up

Julie gives 7 pieces of candy to each of her friends. If Julie gives all of her candy away, which amount of candy could have bee
True [87]
To find the answer to this problem, you just need to figure out which total amount of candy is divisible by 7.

161/7=23
<span>162/7=23.1428571429
</span>145/7=<span>20.7142857143
128/7=</span><span>18.2857142857

Obviously, Julie cannot give a fraction of an amount of candy to someone.  So that rules out that she had 162, 145, or 128 pieces of candy.  

The only amount of candies that Julie could have that is divisible by 7 is 161 candies, which means that 161 is your answer.</span>
