Answer:

x = \frac{-5}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3x+4(x+3)=7

3x+(4)(x)+(4)(3)=7(Distribute)

3x+4x+12=7

(3x+4x)+(12)=7(Combine Like Terms)

7x+12=7

7x+12=7

Step 2: Subtract 12 from both sides.

7x+12−12=7−12

7x=−5

Step 3: Divide both sides by 7.

\frac{7x}{7} = \frac{-5}{7}

Write an equation in standard form for the line that passes through the given points.
Agata [3.3K]

So, pretend this is your x-axis and y-axis:

                                   I

        I

   (-2,7) •  I

        I

        I       • (2, 5)

        I

        I

        I  

        I

 _________________I____________________

        I

        I

        I

TO GET FROM POINT (-2, 7) TO POINT (2, 5), WE MOVE DOWN 2 AND OVER 4, SO THE SLOPE IS -1/2. IF WE FOLLOW THAT SLOPE AND MOVE DOWN 1 AND OVER 2 FROM THE FIRST POINT OF  (-2, 7), WE WILL LAND ON A POINT LOCATED AT (0, 6), WHICH WOULD BE THE "Y-INTERCEPT". WE WERE JUST ABLE TO CALCULATE THE SLOPE OF THE LINE AND THEN USE THE SLOPE TO FIND THE INTERCEPT. SO, THE "SLOPE-INTERCEPT" FORM OF THE EQUATION FOR THIS LINE IS:

y = -1/2x + 6

TO RE-WRITE THIS IN STANDARD FORM, WE JUST WANT TO MOVE THE X VARIABLE OVER TO THE LEFT WITH THE Y VARIABLE, SO:

y = -1/2x + 6

+1/2x   + 1/2x

1/2x + y = 6 .... and that is your answer!

A particular frozen yogurt has 75 calories in 2 ounces how many calories are in 8 ounces of the yogurt
Sveta_85 [38]
Hello there! If you know basic division, then you know that 8/2 is 4. With 75 calories being in 2 ounces of yogurt, all we have to do is multiply by 4 to get the amount of calories in 8 ounces of yogurt, because 2 * 4 is 8. Plus for this scenario, whatever we do to one part, we must do to the other. Let's solve. 75 * 4 is 300. There. There are 300 calories in 8 ounces of yogurt.

Given the figure, if ∠ABC is 20° and C is the center of the circle, what is the measure of the central angle ∠ACB? A) 40° B) 70°
kramer

Answer:

D) 140°

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of degrees in a triangle is 180. Since both sides of the triangle are the radius of the circle, the triangle is isosceles. Therefore the two opposite angles are equal. Thus, the central angle is 180° − 2(20°) = 140°.
