-2x + 3x - 5 = 6 - 21 FIND x

Mathematics
1 answer:
trasher [3.6K]3 years ago
5 0

Before we do any solving, we need to simplify both sides.

On the left, we can simplify -2x + 3x - 5 to x - 5.

On the right, we can simplify 6 - 21 to -16.

So we have x - 5 = -16.

Solving from here, we add 5 to both sides to get x = -11.

The slope of the line whose equation is x-3y= 1 is<br> 0-3<br> -1/3<br> 0<br> 0<br> 1/3
insens350 [35]

x-3y= 1

The equation needs to be rewritten in proper Slope intercept form ( y = mx+b) where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

x-3y = 1

Subtract x from each side:

-3y = 1-x

Divide both sides by -3:

y = 1/-3 - x/-3

Simplify:

y = 1/3x - 1/3

The slope is 1/3
