2x+3=17
subtract 3 from each side
2x+3 -3 = 17 -3
2x = 14
divide by 2 on each side
2x/2 = 14/2
x = 7
Answer:
x = -10
Step-by-step explanation:
move all the constants (numbers without variables) to one side to get
-4x = 42 - 2
-4x = 40
multiply by -1
4x = -40
divide by 4
x = -10
The third one down
Because the best line of fit is a line that goes between the plotted points and it HAS to be a straight line and most of the points close to the line
I think it'd be 10in. If you cut it into three parts, where the bottom is sectioned off from the other two rectangles, the two rectangles on the side both have an area of 3in, so together they'd be 6in. The rectangle on the bottom has a length of 4 and a width of 1, so it'd be 4in... add those together and get 10in. Hope this helps
