8 x - 4 (5 - x) = -44

Mathematics
1 answer:
Sphinxa [80]3 years ago
3 0

8 x - 4 (5 - x) = -44

mutiply the bracket by -4

(-4)(5) = -20

(-4)(-x)= 4x

8x-20+4x= -44

8x+4x-20= -44 ( combine like terms )

12x-20= -44

move -20 to the other side

sign changes from -20 to +20

12x-20+20= -44+20

12x= -44+20

12x= -24

divide both sides by 12

12x/12= -24/12

Answer: x= -2

Someone please help thanks!!!
MArishka [77]

Answer:

-3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line is calculated by dividing the difference in the y-coordinates by the difference in the x-coordinates.

Here, the given ordered pairs are (-6, -8) and (-14, 4), so the slope is:

slope = m = (4 - (-8)) / (-14 - (-6)) = 12 / (-8) = -3/2

The answer is thus -3/2.
