Step-by-step explanation:

5+6x=2x-7

We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand  

5+6x=2x-7

We move all terms containing x to the left and all other terms to the right.  

+6x-2x=-7-5

We simplify left and right side of the equation.  

+4x=-12

We divide both sides of the equation by 4 to get x.  

x=-3

Graph a line that contains the point (6, -5) and has a slope of -2/3.
Lapatulllka [165]

We know that the equation of the line is in the form y=-\frac{2}{3}x+b. To find b, we can use the fact that (6,-5) lies on the line, meaning that both sides of the equation are equal when x=6 and y=-5.

-5=-\frac{2}{3}(6)+b\\-5=-4+b\\b=-1

Hence, the equation of the line is y=-\frac{2}{3}x-1, and its graph looks something like follows.

What is 3/15 in a decimal
Damm [24]
Well, since 3/15 can be simplified to 1/5 by dividing the top and the bottom by 3, you would just need to find the decimal of 1/5 which is much more commonly recognized. it's .2 (becasue 1/10 would be .1 and 1/5=2/10 so .1x2=.2)
