X/2 - 6 = 15
x/2 -6 +6 = 15 + 6
x/2 = 21
x/2 × 2 = 21 × 2
x = 42

Check
42 ÷ 2 - 6 = 15
42 ÷ 2 = 21 -6 = 15

Find the y intercept of (-2,5) and (3,25)
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

The y-intercept is (0, 13).

Step-by-step explanation:

First finf the equation of the line:

The slope = (25- 5) / (3 - -2)

= 20/5

= 4

So its equation is

y - 5  = 4(x  + 2)

y = 4x + 13

The y-intercept occurs when x = 0

so y-intercept = 4(0) + 13.

It's (0, 13).

Given the equation 2 Square root of x minus 5 = 2, solve for x and identify if it is an extraneous solution.
leonid [27]
<span>2 square root (x - 5) = 2. 2^2 (x -5) = 2^2. 4(x - 5) = 4. 4x - 20 = 4. 4x = 24. x = 6. This solution is not extraneous, because extraneous solutions emerge from solving the problem but are not actually valid solutions for the initial problem. With rounding, this solution is valid for the initial problem.</span>
