What is 2(x + 4)=2(-8- x) - 2x

Mathematics
1 answer:
Maru [420]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

You want to solve for x, the first thing you need to do is distribute

The 2 through the x+4 then the other 2 through the -8-x

2(x+4)= 2x+8

2(-8-x)= -16-2x

2x+8=-16-2x-2x (combine like terms on the right side)

2x+8=-16-4x (now subtract 8 from each side)

2x=-24-4x (8-8=0, -16-8=-24) (now add 4x to each side)

6x=-24 (-4x+4x=0, 2x+4x=6x), (divide each side by 6)

x=-4 (6/6=1, -24/6=-4)

x=-4

Hope this helps ;)

The equation of best fit is y = (-22/5)x + 10.

What is an equation of a line?

The equation of a line is given by:

y = mx + c where m is the slope of the line and c is the y-intercept.

Example:

The slope of the line y = 2x + 3 is 2.

The slope of a line that passes through (1, 2) and (2, 3) is 1.

We have,

The following coordinates are given:

Pick two coordinates.

(0, 10) and (25, -100)

The equation of best fit.

y = mx + c

Now,

m = (-100 - 10) / (25 - 0)

m = -110 / 25

m = -22/5

Now,

(0, 10) = (x, y)

10 = (-22/5) x 0 + c

c = 10

Now,

y = mx + c

y = (-22/5)x + 10

Thus,

Using the coordinates the equation of best fit is y = (-22/5)x + 10.
