What is the answer for -2x = 34

Mathematics

Alinara [238K]3 years ago

Hello!

Answer:

\boxed{X=-17}

<u><em>*The answer must have a NEGATIVE sign!*</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you divide by -2 from both sides of an equation.

\frac{-2x}{-2}=\frac{34}{-2}

Then, you divide by the numbers from left to right.

34/-2=-17

\boxed{X=-17}, which is our the correct answer.

Hope this helps!

Have a nice day! :)

:D

-Charlie

Thank you!

To solve:

-2x = 34
----- -----
-2 -2

(-2x means -2 times x, so to undo this we need to divide by -2 on both sides)

x = -17

Then you do basic division (knowing that a positive divided by a negative results in a negative answer). And that's it!

Which region represents the solution to the given system of inequalities?
Phoenix [80]

Answer: The intersection region shown in the graph attached is the solution of the system of inequalities.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in Slope-Intercept form is:

y=mx+b

Where "m" is the slope and "b" is the y-intercept.

 Given the following system of inequalities:

\left \{ {{x+3y\leq-3 } \atop {x\geq3 }} \right.

We need to graph the lines.

We have the line:

x+3y=-3

Solving for "y", we get:

3y=-x-3\\\\y=\frac{1}{3}x-1

Knowing that m=-\frac{1}{3} and b=-1, we can graph it.

Since the symbol is \leq, the line must be solid.

The other line is:

x=3

Since "x" only takes one value, we can identify that it is a vertical line, so we can graph it.

Since the symbol is \geq, the line must be solid.

We need to substitute a point that is not on the line, into each inequalities. Let's choose the point (0,0).

Then:

0+3(0)\leq-3\\\\0\leq-3

This is false, therefore, we must shade the half that does not contain this point.

0\geq 3

This is false, so we must shade the half that does not contain this point.

The intersection region of the solutions (Observe the graph attached) of the given inequalities is the solution of the system of inequalities.

Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

x < 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

- 4x + 5 >  - 5 \\  - 4x >  - 5 - 5 \\  - 4x >  - 10 \\  \frac{ - 4x}{ - 4}  >  \frac{ - 10}{ - 4}  \\ x <  \frac{5}{2}  \\ x < 2.5

hope this helps

brainliest appreciated

good luck! have a nice day!
