Answers:
Answer for row one: 1
Answer for row two: 11
Answer for row three: 16
Answer for row four: 36
=========================================
Work Shown:
Whatever the x value is, we multiply by 5 and subtract off 14 to get the corresponding y value. This is following the order of operations PEMDAS
------------
If x = 3, then
y = 5*x - 14
y = 5*3 - 14 ..... note how x is replaced with 3
y = 15 - 14
y = 1
This means that when x = 3, the y value is y = 1.
So 1 goes in the box in the first row.
---------------
Repeat for x = 5
y = 5*x - 14
y = 5*5 - 14
y = 25 - 14
y = 11
We have 11 as the second answer.
--------------
Repeat for x = 6
y = 5*x - 14
y = 5*6 - 14
y = 30 - 14
y = 16
The third answer is 16.
--------------
Repeat for x = 10
y = 5*x - 14
y = 5*10 - 14
y = 50 - 14
y = 36
The last answer is 36.

b, d
Step-by-step explanation:
20/-4 = -5
20 x (-1/4) = -5
Answer:
All real numbers; the simplification is described below.
Step-by-step explanation:
5(- 3x - 2) - (x - 3) = -4(4x + 5) + 13
Let's keep in mind PEMDAS (the order of operations) to simplify and solve this. First, we'll distribute inside each set of parenthesis!
5(-3x) + 5(-2) -1(x) -1(-3) = -4(4x) -4(5) + 13
See how we've taken the outer term on the outside of the parenthesis and multiplied it to each term inside the parenthesis. Simplify further.
-15x - 10 - x + 3 = -16x - 20 + 13
Now we can combine like terms! I will bold the terms I am combining.
-15x - 10 - x + 3 = -16x - 20 + 13 (combining the x terms on the left)
-16x - 10 + 3 = -16x - 20 + 13 (combining the constants on both sides)
-16x - 7 = -16x - 7
Aha! It looks like we have an equation that's literally equal to itself. If we were to simplify this, or put in any number, we'd get that number equals itself. For example:
-16(1) - 7 = -16(1) - 7
-16 - 7 = -16 - 7
-21 = -21
Any number you put in here will make the equation true, so these lines must be the same line. That means the solution is all real numbers.
Answer: x = 3. the length of side ST is 14.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since both sides are equal, we can use the equation 3x + 5 = 5x - 1.
To start the problem, we subtract 3x from each side which makes our equation 5 = 2x - 1.
The next step would be to simplify the equation by adding 1 to each side which makes our equation 6 = 2x.
We then need to simplify the equation to x = 3.
This means the answer to 9 is x = 3.
For the next problem, since we already know the value of x, we substitute its value which in this case would be 3. This leaves us with an equation of 9 + 5, which equals 14.
This means the length of side ST is 14.
