Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x-5)+6x = 3x-15+7x

3x-15+7x = 65

10x = 80

x = 8

To solve this, you need to isolate/get the variable "x" by itself in the equation:

3(x - 5) + 7x = 65      Distribute 3 into (x - 5)

(3)x + (3)(-5) + 7x = 65

3x - 15 + 7x = 65     Combine like terms(terms that have the same variable and power/exponent), or combine 3x and 7x

10x - 15 = 65    Add 15 on both sides

10x - 15 + 15 = 65 + 15

10x = 80    Divide 10 on both sides to get "x" by itself

\frac{10x}{10} =\frac{80}{10}

x = 8

PROOF

3(x - 5) + 7x = 65     Substitute/plug in 8 into "x" since x = 8

3(8 - 5) + 7(8) = 65

3(3) + 56 = 65

9 + 56 = 65

65 = 65

Find the length of AB
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

17 units

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the lenght of drawing a triangle and counting the x units and y units, thereby the AB would be the hypotenuse.

X units ( base ) = 15 units

Y units ( height ) = 8 units

AB = root of 8^2 + 15^2

AB = root of 289

AB = 17 units

Hope it helps :)

How do I solve without s calculator?
baherus [9]
You could solve it ( without a graph) in 2 easy ways :

1 use the equation that you have written in pencil and solve for y

y=3=-x+4
y=-x +1

Or you could use the point slop form after you find the y intercept y=mx+b


-3=4(-1)+b
b= 1

So the answer would be y= -x +1


Hope this help of it does feel free to give the brainliest
