Hey!


You're right! This equation can definitely be solved by performing two operations on both sides. Let me show you how it's done.

First, let's write out our equation.

<span><em>Original Equation :</em>
</span>x + 53 = 15

Now that that's done, we'll be performing two operations on both sides. The operation we'll want to do is subtracting both sides of the equation by 53. We do this to get x on its own.

<em>Original Equation :</em>
x + 53 = 15

<em>New Equation {Added Subtract 53 to Both Sides} :</em>
x + 53 - 53 = 15 - 53

Now we have to solve the equation. Let's do the left side first.

<em>Left Side of the Equation :</em>
x + 53 - 53 

<em>Left Side of the Equation {Solved} :</em>
x

Now, we'll solve the right side of the equation.

<em>Right Side of the Equation :</em>
15 - 53

<em>Right Side of the Equation {Solved} :</em>
-38

Now we can put both solutions to both sides of the equation together.

<em>New Equation :</em>
x = -38

Since this cannot be simplified any farther, this is our final answer. And that's it!

<em>So, now we know that in the equation x + 53 = 15,</em>  x = -38

Hope this helps!

Answer:

y=3x-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Two points on the line are (3,2) and (4,5) using the slope equation, 5-2/4-3=3/1

y-2=3(x-3)

(2+) y-2=3x-9(+2)

y=3x-7

Please help! i'm not really good at these, thank u sm if u help!
Archy [21]

Answer:

Correct: a, b, c, d, f, g, h, i, l

Incorrect: e, j, k

Step-by-step explanation:

a. -120=60(-2) {insert x and y into the equation and see if it works} Correct

b. 60 is being multiplied by hours, so it is the mph Correct

c. 60 is always the one being multiplied, so it's the constant Correct

d. 210=60(3.5) {insert 3.5 as x [cause hours] and see if it equals 210 [it does]} Correct

e. y is the dependent variable, and it represent miles driven Incorrect

f. Direct variation equation is y=kx {in the equation, k=60} Correct

g. x is the independent variable, and it represents the hours driven Correct

h. The x and the y are proportional Correct

i. y is the dependent variable, and it represent miles driven Correct

j.  y is the dependent variable, and it represent miles driven Incorrect

k. Rise=y Run=x The first point would be (1,60) {rise=60 run=1} Incorrect

l. (0,0) is a solution, and it is also the y-intercept Correct

(hope this helps :P)

Marking brainliest <br><br> Can you give me an example on why it’s not foolish to fear ?
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

It is not foolish to fear—it is a matter of survival. The physical responses we have to objects or situations that we fear are often grouped together and characterized as a “fight or flight” instinct. Something alarms you, and instantly your brain causes a number of chemicals to be released into your bloodstream.

Fynjy0 [20]
Answer: 266 boys
Because there are 304 girls we do 304/8=38 now we do 38 multiplied by 7 (as that is the ratio for the number of boys) 38*7=266 boys
