Answer:

x = 7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

To start, let's distribute the 3 across the 4x and -2 to get 3(4x) + 3(-2) = 1. Now, we multiply to get 12x + (-6) = 1. Next, we get 12x - 6 = 1. Add 6 from both sides to get 12x = 7, and finally, if we divide both sides by 12, we get x = 7/12.

Answer:

3(4x − 2) = 1

4x − 2 = 1/3

4x = 1/3 + 2

4x = 1/3 + 6/3

4x = 7/3

x = 7/12

I dont get the question so im going to show you both solutions
if you’re asking for (2m+5)²=0 then
(2m+5)²=0 /√
2m+5=0
m=-5/2

if you’re asking only for (2m+5)² then

Find the equation of the line that contains the given point and has the given slope-

mylen [45]

Answer:

y-5 = -3x

y = -3x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the point slope form of the equation

y-y1 = m(x-x1) where m is the slope and (x1,y1) is a point on the line

y-5 = -3(x-0)

y-5 = -3x

We can change it to slope intercept form y= mx+b by adding 5 to each side

y-5+5 = -3x+5

y = -3x+5

Which graph shows the line y - 2 = 2(x + 2)?

klasskru [66]

For this case we have the following linear function:
$y - 2 = 2 (x + 2)
$
Rewriting we have:
$y - 2 = 2x + 4

y = 2x + 4 + 2

y = 2x + 6$
We observe that the linear function has:
Positive slope and equal to 2.
Intersection with the axis y equal to 6.
Answer:
y = 2x + 6
