Answer:

x = -6/7

Step-by-step explanation:

5 – 6x = 8x + 17

-5                 - 5           Subtract 5 from both sides

-6x = 8x + 12

-8x   - 8x                     Subtract 8x from both sides

-14x = 12                      Divide both sides by -14

x = -12/14                     Simplify

x = -6/7

The equation 201.50=f+6.50(21) represents the cost of printing the shirts at a second printing company. Find the solution to the
AveGali [126]

Answer:

f = 65

Setup cost = 65

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation : 201.50=f+6.50(21)

Solving for f:

201.50 = f + 136.50

201.50 - 136.50 = f

f = 65

The equation above is written in the form a slope intercept function where,, 6.50 is the gradient and X equals the number of shirts, The total cost of printing is 201.50

f is the intercept and represents the initial fee or setup cost. Hence, the setup. Cost = 65

Is x = -7, the solution to -11 + 2x = -26? Justify your answer in complete sentences.
Natali5045456 [20]
First of all, you can move the +2x to the other side:
-11 = -26 - 2x

Then you can move the -26 to the other side and then simplify:
-11+26 = -2x
 15 = -2x

Then you can divide both sides by 2:
7.5 = -x

Then you can flip the sides and the signs around:
x = -7.5

No, The answer is not -7, it is -7.5
Hope this helps! :)

If g(x) = x ² + 2x -8, evaluate f(-2)​
Doss [256]

Answer: -8

Explanation: If g(x) = x² + 2x - 8, then g(-2) = (-2)² + 2(-2) - 8

which simplifies to 4 + (-4) - 8 or 0 - 8 which is -8.

Remember to always use parentheses when

substituting your given value in for <em>x</em>.
