Solve for x: −2(x + 3) = −2(x + 1) − 4. (1 point)

Answer:

Hey there!

Let's solve our equation below.

-2(x+3)= -2(x+1)-4

Let's distribute the parentheses.

-2x-6=-2x-2-4

We combine like terms.

-2x-6=-2x-6

We add 6 to both sides.

-2x=-2x

We divide both sides by -2

x=x

If, when solving an equation, you get one number or variable that equals itself, there are infinitely many solutions.

We can plug anything into this equation and it will always equal to same things, since x is just equal to whatever x value you want.

Therefore, there are infinitely many solutions.

I hope this helps!

Answer: the x-intercept is (-10,0), the y-intercept is (0,45/2)

Explanation:

First, we need to determine the function describing the line.

From the table, it is obvious that the y values increase by 9 every increase of 4 of the x values. So, the slope is 9/4 and the function looks like this:

y = m x+ b = \frac{9}{4}x + b

with the y-intercept (or bias) b still unknown. This can be determined by using one of the point from the table, like so:

-18 = \frac{9}{4}\cdot 2+b\\\implies b = -18 -\frac{9}{2}=\frac{45}{2}\\y = \frac{9}{4}x+\frac{45}{2}

The above function form makes it easy to read off the y-intercept, which is (0,45/2) or (0,22.5). The x-intercept is obtained by setting y = 0 and solving for x:

y = \frac{9}{4}x+\frac{45}{2}\\0 = \frac{9}{4}x+\frac{45}{2}\\-\frac{45}{2}=\frac{9}{4}x\\x = -10

The x-intercept is (-10,0)

Answer:

6.25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Percent error is calculated by taking the difference of measured value and correct value divided by correct value and multiplied by 100%.

Mathematically,

Percent error = (correct value - measured value)/correct value  * 100%

_________________________________________________

in the problem given

measured value = 75 degrees Celsius

correct value = 80 degrees Celsius ( as given in reference book)

thus,

Percent error = (80 - 75)/80 * 100%

Percent error = (5/80 )* 100% = 6.25%

Percent error calculated by him is  6.25%.
