Step-by-step explanation:

3(x-5)-5=23

3x-15-5=23

3x-20=23

3x=23+20

3x=43

x=14.333

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3(x−5)−5=23

(3)(x)+(3)(−5)+−5=23(Distribute)

3x+−15+−5=23

(3x)+(−15+−5)=23(Combine Like Terms)

3x+−20=23

3x−20=23

Step 2: Add 20 to both sides.

3x−20+20=23+20

3x=43

Step 3: Divide both sides by 3.

3x /3 = 43 /3

x= 43 /3

Find the slope of the line that passes through the pair of points

love history [14]

Answer:

$\frac{5,805}{2812}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope from two points you can use the following formula:

$m = \frac{y -y_{1} }{x -x_{1} }$

Now substitute the two sets of points $(\frac{7}{20}, \frac{5}{19} ) and (\frac{5}{9}, \frac{11}{16})$

Substitute the values like this:

$y = \frac{5}{19}, y_{1} = \frac{11}{16}, x = \frac{7}{20}$ and $x_{1} =\frac{5}{9}$

Now you will need to simplify the following expression:

$m = \frac{\frac{5}{19} -\frac{11}{16} }{\frac{7}{20}-\frac{5}{9} }$

Make sure that denominators are the same before substracting:

$m = \frac{\frac{-129}{304} }{\frac{-37}{180} }$

when you divide with a fractional number you only need to flip the second fraction over (find its reciprocal). Then just multiply:

$m = (\frac{-129}{304} })({\frac{-180}{37} } ) = \frac{5805}{2812}$
