So first, you get the absolute value to one side:
|5x|+5=45\\
|5x|=40

Next, set up two equations; One where the value inside the absolute value lines is positive, and another where it is negative, and solve both for the variable:
|5x|=40\\5x=40\\x=\frac{40}{5}=8\\\\-5x=40\\x=\frac{40}{-5}=-8

Your answers are 8 and -8, or +-8.

Answer:  x-intercept :12 & y-intercept ;-8


Step-by-step explanation:To find the x-intercept ,substitute in 0 for y and solve for x .

8x-12y=96

8x-12(0)=96

8x=96 (divide both # by 8)

x=12

To find the y-intercept ,substitute in 0 for x and solve for y .

8(0)-12y=96

-12y=96(Divide by -12 both )

y=-8

Through: (-3,2) and (0, -3)
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

y = -5/3x - 3

Assuming this is a linear function

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Use (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) to find the slope of the equation, assuming it is a linear function.

(-3-2)/(0+3) = -5/3 <--- slope

2. The y-intercept is going to be the (0, -3) point, since the point is directly on the y-axis.

3. Put both of those values into the new equation

y = -5/3x - 3

Can somebody help me with this question plz !

Answer:

y=4x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines will always have the same slope (the number that comes before x in an equation). So, we can plug in 4 to the equation.

y=4x+?

Let's say the ? is b. If we plug in the point (1,1) into y=4x+b, we get

1=4(1)+b

reduce

1=4+b

subtract 4 from both sides

-3=b

and now we can add b=-3 into the original answer, and we get y=4x-3!
