I think you could only simplify it to x-9
Just isolate y! Since the slope-point formula is y = mx + b, looking at your m determines if it's negative or positive! You can always graph the equation to check, but it's usually easier to look at the formula.
Answer:
x = -8
m∠BDC = 68°

- Definition of a Line: A line is 180°
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Set up Equation</u>
m∠BDC + m∠CDA = 180°
(-7x + 12)° + (-8x + 48)° = 180°
<u>Step 2: Solve for x
</u>
- Combine like terms: -15x + 60 = 180
- Isolate x term: -15x = 120
- Isolate x: x = -8
<u>Step 3: Find m∠BDC
</u>
- Define: m∠BDC = (-7x + 12)°
- Substitute in x: m∠BDC = (-7(-8) + 12)°
- Multiply: m∠BDC = (56 + 12)°
- Add: m∠BDC = 68°
Answer:
for #14, x=10
Step-by-step explanation:
in the graph, 6x = 5x +10 so if x was 10 it would be 60 = 60 so x = 10
10000 pounds is 5 tons
1 ton =2000 pounds
10000 ÷ 2000 =5
