Answer: -4.5, but only if the phrase "five twice the sum . . ." means 5*2*(the sum of . . .). "five twice" is confusing, so please check the question.
Step-by-step explanation:
5*2*(X + 3) = 3*(2X - 1)
10X + 15 = 6X -3
4X = -18
X = -18/4
X = - 4.5
Answer:
We substitute
12 = -x - 2
14 = -x or -x = 14
so the answer is -14!
I am in honors high school algebra and I am 11. Trust me bro.
Step-by-step explanation:
Tenths is after the decimal so the tenths is 5.
It looks like your instructor wants you to write in point-slope form.
the equation for point slope form is quite simple
y-y1=m(x-x1)
your variables:
y and x: just state these as they are
m: slope
y1 and x1: the numbers in the point given
keep in mind a double negative equals a positive, so when you come across a negative coordinate you would put + instead of - in your equation.
your final answer would be
y+2=-2(x-4)
I hope this helped :)
