The equation given in the question is
3x - 1 = 27
3x = 27 + 1
3x = 28
x = 28/3
  = 9 1/3
  = 9.33
So the value of x is 9 1/3 or 9.33. i hope there is nothing complicated in the procedure and so it is easy for you to understand. You can always use this method for solving similar problems in future without requiring any additional help from outside. Only be careful about the calculation part. Other than that there is nothing tough about the given problem.

3x -1= 27
⇒ 3x= 27+ 1 (inverse operation)
⇒ 3x= 28
⇒ x= 28/3 (inverse operation)
⇒ x= (27+1)/3
⇒ x= 27/3+ 1/3
⇒ x= 9+ 1/3
⇒ x= 9 1/3

Final answer: x= 9 1/3.

sattari [20]

Answer:

y = 1/4 x - 7/2

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 4y = 14

-4y = -x + 14

y = -x/(-4) - 14/4

y = 1/4 x - 7/2

An equation parallel and perpendicular to 4x+5y=19
mestny [16]

Answer:

An equation parallel to 4x + 5y = 19 would be y = -4/5x +12.

An equation perpendicular to 4x + 5y = 19 would be y = 5/4x + 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation given represents a linear equation in Standard Form (Ax + By = C).  Lines that are parallel to each other go the same direction and don't touch, so their slopes must be the same.  However, lines that are perpendicular go in opposite directions and intersect, so their slopes must be the direct opposite of each other.  In order to find the slope, you must first convert from the Standard Form given to Slope Intercept Form (y = mx +b).  When you solve the given equation for 'y', you get: y = -4/5x + 19, where the slope = -4/5.  To make a parallel equation, simply keep the same slope and choose a different y-intercept ('b').  To make a perpendicular equation, take the direct opposide of your slope 5/4 (positive) and choose a different y-intercept.

Verify if f(x)= 5-3x/2 and g(x)= 5-2x/3 are inverses. Please show step by step.
mestny [16]

Since f(g(x)) = g(f(x)) = x, hence the function f(x) and g(x) are inverses of each other.

<h3>Inverse of functions</h3>

In order to determine if the function f(x) and g(x) are inverses of each other, the composite function f(g(x)) = g(f(x))

Given the function

f(x)= 5-3x/2 and

g(x)= 5-2x/3

f(g(x)) = f(5-2x/3)

Substitute

f(g(x)) = 5-3(5-2x)/3)/2

f(g(x)) = (5-5+2x)/2

f(g(x)) = 2x/2

f(g(x)) = x

Similarly

g(f(x)) = 5-2(5-3x/2)/3

g(f(x)) = 5-5+3x/3

g(f(x)) = 3x/3

g(f(x)) =x

Since f(g(x)) = g(f(x)) = x, hence the function f(x) and g(x) are inverses of each other.
