2(x - 2) + 3(x + 1) = 9

2x - 4   + 3x + 3  = 9      <em>distributed the 2 and 3 on the left side</em>

               5x - 1   = 9      <em>added like terms (2x + 3x) and (-4 + 3)</em>

                     5x = 10      <em>added 1 to both sides</em>

                       x  = 2       <em>divided 5 from both sides</em>

Answer: x = 2

What is the slope of D and E??
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

-4 and 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Rise over Run would give us the slope.

In the first graph, It goes down 4 while it goes 1 to the right.

This means that -4/1 = -4.

The second graph does not go up or down, meaning 0, while it goes 1 to the right.

This means that 0/1 = 0.
