If you want it simplified -6k+5, if you need the answer lmk
The common point between y = 2x + 5 and y = (1/2)x + 6 will have the same values for x and y.
Therefore, set the two y expressions equal to obtain
2x + 5 = (1/2)x + 6
Subtract (1/2)x from each side.
(3/2)x + 5 = 6
Subtract 5 from each side.
(3/2)x = 1
Multiply each side by 2/3.
x = 2/3.
From the first equation, obtain
y = 2*(2/3) + 5 = 19/3.
The common point is (2/3, 19/3). It is not equal to (3, 1/2).
Answer: False
The answer or range would be 40
Answer:
solution is -6/5 because:
-1/2(5x-8)=7
-5x+8/2=7
-5x+8=7*2
-5x+8=14
-5x=14-8
-5x=6
x=-6/5
Seven and one half or seven and eight sixteenths
