Answer:

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

2x = 15 + x

This is a linear equation in x.

We solve for x by grouping similar terms.

Let us subtract x from both sides of the equation to get:

2x - x = 15 + x - x

We simplify to get:

x= 15 + 0

This implies that:

x = 15

Therefore the correct solution is x=15.

A 5 in x 7 in picture is in a frame of uniform width x. The area of the picture and the frame together is 99 in2. How wide is th
algol13

Answer: B. 2 inch

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the uniform width of the frame.

The original dimensions of the picture is 5 in x 7 in. This means that the new width of the picture together with the frame is (5 + 2x) in and the new length of the picture together with the frame is (7 + 2x) in.

The formula for determining the area of a rectangle is expressed as

Area = length × width

The area of the picture and the frame together is 99 in2. Therefore,

(5 + 2x)(7 + 2x) = 99

35 + 10x + 14x + 4x² = 99

4x² + 24x + 35 - 99 = 0

4x² + 24x - 64 = 0

Dividing through by 4, it becomes

x² + 6x - 16 = 0

x² + 8x - 2x - 16 = 0

x(x + 8) - 2(x + 8) = 0

x - 2 = 0 or x + 8 = 0

x = 2 or x = - 8

The width cannot be negative. So

x = 2 in

Answer:

B. y=6x+9

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(-3-3)/(-2+1)= (-6)/(-1)= 6

m=6

y=mx+b       y=6x+b

plug in one of the points for b

-3=6(-2)+b    -3=-12+b  -3+12= 9

y=6x+9

The answer to your question is the first option, which includes the points (3,6) and (5,10). We know that this is the answer because the two numbers, if set up in fractional form, are proportional. Additionally, the two points like on the same line in the graph. Hope this helps!!
