Answer:

A) x=9/2 B) x=-1/5, 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-9=27/1-5x

3x-9=27-5x

3x-(-5x)-9=27

3x+5x-9=27

8x-9=27

8x=27+9

8x=36

x=36/8

simplify

x=9/2

Answer: x=9/2

-----------------------------

10x-1/x=3

(10x^2-1)/x=3

10x^2-1=3*x

10x^2-1=3x

10x^2-3x-1=0

factor out the trinomial,

find two numbers that when they multiply,

you get the third term, which is -1 in this case.

When you add those 2 numbers, you get the second term,

which is -3 in this case.

(5x+1)(2x-1)=0

apply the zero property from here,

set 5x+1=0 and 2x-1=0 and solve for x.

5x=0-1=-1, x=-1/5,

2x=0+1=1, 2x=1, x=1/2.

So x=-1/5, 1/2.

I need help solving this
Stolb23 [73]

Step-by-step explanation:

So in the equation given, y = 2x - 3

you substitute x for whats given in the table in the x column.

Example

In the graph the first number under the x colum is -1.

y = 2x - 3 in the equation you take out x and put -1.

So now the equation becomes y = 2 × -1 - 3.

Using bedmas to solve the question you should get -5

Which now means y = -5

To plot the point now x would be -1 and y would be -5 (-1, -5)

Same thing for the second number in the x Column.

y = 2 × 1 - 3 which equals -1

To plot it

x = 1 y = -1. (1, -1)

And for the last number 3.

Agai. You substitute x for 3 which makes the equation y = 2 × 3 - 3

this gives you 3 and to plot it

x would be 3 and y would be 3

nlexa [21]
We are given the description of a diagram where the base of a parallelogram lies on the x-axis with the left vertex on the origin. We are also given the three consecutive coordinates of the vertices which are
(h, j ), (0, 0), and (k, 0)
Based on the coordinates, the point (h, j) is j units from the y-axis
