5x+3(2x-1)=3x-14

Use distributive property

5x+6x-3=3x-14

Combine like terms

11x-3=3x-14


Subtract 3x from both sides to get...


8x-3=-14


Add 3 to both sides to get

8x=-11


Divide both sides by 8 to get


X=-11/8

Answer:

x=-11/8

Step-by-step explanation:

First use the Distributive property on [3(2x-1)]:

5x+6x-3=3x-14

Now combine alike terms:

11x-3=3x-14

Now add three to both sides:

11x=3x-11

Now subtract 3x from both sides:

8x=-11

Now divide both sides by 8:

x=-11/8

This fraction cannot be simplified meaning your final answer SHOULD be -11/8

Want does the y- intercept mean ?
mariarad [96]
The y-intercept is the y value  of an equation on  a graph or cordinate grid For example y=mx+b, b would be the y-intercept. Another example, y=2x-2, -2 would be the y-intercept and you would place a point on -2 and go up 2 right 1 because of the slope 2. I hope this helps you to better understand the y-intercept.

Find an equation of the curve that passes through the point (0, 4) and whose slope at (x, y) is x/y.
jolli1 [7]
1/2y^2=1/2x^2+8. The curve's slope at (x,y) is x/y, so dy/dx=x/y. To solve this differential equation, rearrange it to: y*dy=x*dx, and by integrating both sides, we get 1/2y^2=1/2x^2+C (some constant). Plug in (0,4) into this equation, 8=0+C, so C=8. The curve's equation is 1/2y^2=1/2x^2+8.
