Answer:

x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

4x+y=2(x+3y)\\\\4x-2=2(x+3(-2))\\\\4x-2=2(x-6)\\\\4x-2=2x-12\\\\4x-2+2=2x-12+2\\\\4x=2x-10\\\\4x-2x=2x-2x-10\\\\2x=-10\\\\\frac{2x=-10}{2}\\\\\boxed{x=-5}

Hope this helps.

Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

4x+y=2(x+3y)

plug in -2 for y: 4x+(-2)=2(x+3(-2))

solve: 4x-2=2x-12

subtract 2x from each side: 4x(-2x)-2=2x(-2x)-12

2x-2=-12

add 2 to each side: 2x-2(+2)=-12(+2)

2x=-10

divide both sides by 2: 2x(/2)=10(/2)

x=-5

Segment XY represents the path of an airplane that passes through the coordinates (2, 1) and (4, 5). What is the slope of a line
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we will need to calculate the slope of the line formed by joining the coordinates.

The slope of that line would be : m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

= (5 - 1)/(4 - 2) = 4/2 = 2

The slope of the line joining the coordinates is 2. Since the other line is parallel to this, it simply means the slope of the second line is 2. This is because of two lines are parallel, they will have the same slope.

Sadie and Connor both play soccer. Sadie scored 3 times as many goals as Connor. Together they scored 12 goals. Create and solve
Anastasy [175]

Answer:No

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Sadie scored 3 times more than Conner and it says can Conner score 4,well 3 x 4 is already 12 which is Sadies number not even counting Conners so no,Conner could have not.

Even though you don’t need to I‘ll just tell you what Conner scored,it is 3 since Sadie is 3 times more than Conner ,that’s 3 x 3 which is 9 then plus Conners 3 goals add together which is 12

Hope this helped!

If you are reading this hope you have a wonderful day and may your dreams come true!

Which of the following expressions is equal to 2x2 + 18 ?
ehidna [41]
<h3>Answer: Choice C. (2x - 6i)(x + 3i)</h3>

Work Shown:

2x^2 + 18

2(x^2 + 9)

2(x - 3i)(x + 3i) .... see note below

(2x - 6i)(x + 3i)

Note: I used the rule that a^2 + b^2 = (a - bi)(a + bi). I recommend FOILing out the right hand side to confirm the equation is true. You'll use the idea that i^2 = -1.
