Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1-  You Subtract  5 from 17 and get 12 the equation now looks like this

4(x-3)=12

Step 2- You Distrubute  by taking the 4 and multiplying it by the x and 3

4(x)= 4x and 4(-3)=-12  The equation now looks like this  4x-12=12

Step 3- You now add 12 to -12 to cancle it out and you add 12 to the 12 behind the = sign and you get 24 you equation now looks like this 4x=24

Step 4-  You put 4 under 4  and 4 under 12 as shown 4/4 and 12/4 so you get ride of the 4 so only x is left on that side. 12/4= 3. You are left with x=3  So there is your answer.

Write the equation of the line, in slope-intercept form, that contains the points (-1,-2) and (1,2)
Bad White [126]
Slope intercept is y=mx+b
m=slope
slope if found by
m=(y1-y2)/(x1-x2)
(x,y)
(-1,-2) and
(1,2)
x1=-1
y1=-2
x2=1
y2=2


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


y=1/2x+b
solve fo by subsituting one x value
(1,2)
x=1
y=2
2=1/2(1)+b
2=1/2+b
subtract 1/2
3/2=b


equation is
y=1/2x+3/2

Mr. Vectadore is buying two new cowboy hats. All
Bess [88]

Answer:

$50.08

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use x to represent the lesser expensive hat and 2x to represent the more expensive hat since the more expensive hat is twice the price.

So, our equation would be 2x + x = 75.12

We can combine them together to make 3x.

Then, we make the 3x equal to 75.12

3x = 75.12

Now, we solve it.

Divide both sides by 3 to solve for x.

75.12/3 = 25.04

x = 25.04

Lastly, plug it in for 2x to get the price of the more expensive hat.

2(25.04) = ?

2(25.04) = 50.08

Therefore, the price of the more expensive hat is $50.08
