2 x + 4 = 4 x - 2
2 x + 4 + 2 = 4 x - 2 + 2
2 x + 6 = 4 x
2 x - 2 x + 6 = 4 x - 2 x
6 = 2 x
6 : 2 = 2 x : 2
x = 3
Answer: A ) add 2 , subtract 2 x, then divide by 2

X^2 + 4x + 4 = 10<br>please help!! I missed class! show steps!​
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

x = √(10) - 2, -√(10) - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 4x + 4 = 10

factor:

(x + 2)² = 10

take square root of both sides:

x + 2 = ±√(10)

split into 2 equations:

x + 2 = √(10)      x + 2 = -√(10)

solve both equations and collect solutions:

x = √(10) - 2, -√(10) - 2

What is<br> The equation of the line that passes through the points (5,-1) and (4,-5)
Murljashka [212]

For this case we have that by definition, the equation of the line in the slope-intersection form is given by:

y = mx + b

Where:

m: It is the slope of the line

b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis

We have two points through which the line passes:

(x_ {1}, y_ {1}) :( 5, -1)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}) :( 4, -5)

We found the slope:

m = \frac {y_ {2} -y_ {1}} {x_ {2} -x_ {1}} = \frac {-5 - (- 1)} {4-5} = \frac {-5+ 1} {- 1} = \frac {-4} {- 1} = 4

Thus, the equation is of the form:

y = 4x + b

We substitute one of the points and find b:

(x,y):(5,-1)\\-1=4(5)+b\\-1=20+b\\-1-20=b\\b=-21

Finally, the equation is:

y = 4x-21

Answer:

y = 4x-21

The mass of Mars is 6.42x10-23 kilograms. The mass of mercury is 3.3x10-23 kilograms. What is the combined mass in scientific no
Paraphin [41]

  • <em>combined mass in scientific notation can be written as</em> 97.2×10^{-24}  kg

  • Scientific notation can be regarded as a way of writing very large as well as  very small numbers.

Mars of mass= (6.42x10^{-23} kg )

Mercury= (3.3x10^{-23} kilograms)

Then we add together

(6.42x10^{-23} )+ (3.3x10^{-23}) kilograms.

= 9.45 × 10^{-24} kilograms

Therefore, combined mass in scientific notation can be written as 97.2× 10^{-24} kg
