Answer:

$\huge{ \fbox{ \sf{x = 55}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\star{ \sf{ \: x - 15 = 40}}$

$\text{Step \: 1 \: : Move \: 15 \: to \: right \: hand \: side \: and \: change \: its \: sign}$

$\mapsto{ \sf{x = 40 + 15}}$

$\text{Step \: 2 \: : Add \: the \: numbers : 40 \: and \: 15}$

$\mapsto{ \boxed {\sf{ {x = 55}}}}$

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D

What is an equation that goes through the point (-7, 10) and is perpendicular to the line -2x-4y=9

algol13

Step-by-step explanation:

m1.m2= -1

(4y = -2x -9)= (y = -1x/2 -9/4)

-1/2.m2= -1

m2 = 2

formula = y - y1 = m2 ( x - x1)

y - 10 = 2 ( x - (-7))

y - 10 = 2x + 14

y = 2x + 24

Which expressions are equivalent to 10a - 25 + 5b

sergey [27]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$10a-25+5b\\\\-2(-5a-25+5b)=(-2)(-5a)+(-2)(-25)+(-2)(5b)\\=10a+50-10b\qquad NOT\\\\(2a-5+b)(5)=(2a)(5)+(-5)(5)+(b)(5)=10a-25+5b\qquad YES\\\\10(a-2.5+0.5b)=(10)(a)+(10)(-2.5)+(10)(0.5b)\\=10a-25+5b\qquad YES\\\\(-2a+5-b)(-5)=(-2a)(-5)+(5)(-5)+(-b)(-5)\\=10a-25+5b\qquad YES\\\\-10(-a-2.5-0.5b)=(-10)(-a)+(-10)(-2.5)+(-10)(-0.5b)\\=10a+25+5b\qquad NOT$
