2 \times  - 5x =  - 10x
2 \times 7 = 14
- 10x  + 14 =  - 6
- 14
- 10x =  - 20
x = 2

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

2 (-5x + 7) = -6  (original problem)

-10x + 14 = -6  (distributive property)

         -14    -14  (inverse operation

-10x = -20  (addition)

-1/10 x -10x = -20 x -1/10  (inverse operation)

x = -20/-10 (multiply)

x = 2  (simplify)

Find the value of x please
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

x = 170/34 = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of angle 1 and angle 2 is 180 degrees. They form a straight line.

So, just add the two equations together, set them equal to 180 and solve for x.

12x+19 + 22x - 9 = 180

34x + 10 = 180

34x = 180 - 10 = 170

x = 170/34 = 10/2 = 5

if y = 2x + 7 were changed to y = 1/2 x + 7 , how would the graph of the new function compare with the original ?
iris [78.8K]
Y = 2x + 7.....the slope is 2 and the y int is 7
y = 1/2x + 7...the slope is 1/2 and the y int is 7

In comparison, the only difference is the slope. And if the original equation has a slope of 2, and it is changed to a slope of 1/2, then it will have a " less steep " slope. In other words, the slope will not be as steep....but the y intercepts will be the same.

Dominik [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d represent the total number of days that the milk will last.

The total number of cat warriors travelling together is 8. Each cat needs 4 liters of milk per day to maintain good morale. This means that the 8 cat warriors would need

8 × 4 = 32 liters of milk.

Let n represent the total number of liters of milk available. Therefore, the total number of days the milk will last, d would be

d = n/32

Mirri has a supply of 96 liters of milk. Another cat has enough milk to last for 2 days. This means that the amount of milk that the cat has is 4 × 2 = 8 liters. Total amount of milk available would be

96 + 8 = 104 liters

Therefore

d = 104/32 = 3.25 days
