How do you answer 5x+8=2x+3

Mathematics

Gelneren [198K]3 years ago

Solving for x
5x - 8 = 2x + 7
subtract 2x from both sides
5x - 2x - 8 = 2x - 2x + 7
3x - 8 = 7
add 8 to both sides
3x - 8 + 8 = 7 + 8
3x = 15


divide both sides by 3
3x/3 = 15/3
x = 5
Check answer by replacing x with 5 in the orginal equation
5x - 8 = 2x + 7
5(5) - 8 = 2(5) + 7
25 - 8 = 10 + 7
17 = 17

What is the equation of the line x–3y=18 in slope-intercept form?
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

Simple...

you have: x-3y=18

You want to convert it into slope-intercept form or y=mx+b form-->>>

x-3y=18

Isolate the variable-->>

x-3y=18

-x      -x

-3y=-x+18

Now simply divide...

-3y/-3  = -x+18/-3

y=1/3x=6

valina [46]

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with the vertex form of the equation of a parabola:  y - k = a(x - h)^2

Here h = -2, k = -3, x = -1, y = -5.  Find a:

-5 - [-3] = a(-1 - [-2])^2, or

-5 + 3 = a(1)^2, or

-2 = a

The unknown coefficient is -2.
