Solve and show how you did: -2x + (12 - 9) = 2 + 9 + 2x

1 answer:

5 0

Remove parentheses
-2x + 12 - 9 = 2 + 9 + 2x

Simplify -2x + 12 -9 to -2x + 3
-2x + 3 = 2 + 9 + 2x

Simplify 2 + 9 + 2x to 2x + 11
-2x + 3 = 2x + 11

Add 2x to both sides
3 = 2x + 11 + 2x

Simplify 2x + 11 +2x to 4x + 11
3 = 4x + 11

Subtract 11 from both sides
3 - 11 = 4x

Simplify 3 - 11 to - 8
-8 = 4x

Divide both sides by 4
-8/4 = x

Simplify 8/4 to 2
-2 = x

Switch sides
x = -2

2(x-1) ≥ 10 or 3-4x > 15<br> Solve the compound inequality, and show work!

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

$x\geq 6\text{ or } x$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the compound inequality:

$2(x-1)\geq10\text{ or } 3-4x>15$

Let's solve each of them individually first:

We have:

$2(x-1)\geq10$

Divide both sides by 2:

$x-1\geq5$

Add 1 to both sides:

$x\geq6$

We have:

$3-4x>15$

Subtract from both sides:

$-4x>12$

Divide both sides by -4:

$x$

Hence, our solution set is:

$x\geq 6\text{ or } x$

1.The equation of line CD is (y−3) = − 2 (x − 4). What is the slope of a line perpendicular to line CD? 2.The equation of line A

gogolik [260]

So here's how to do it,
slope intercept form is y=mx+b
m is the slope, b is the y- intercept, X is your unknown variable.

you need to solve to get y by its self to get your slope.

for perpendicular lines flip the slope

ex 1, smy=2x+6 --- slope of a perpendicular line will be 1/2

ex 2, y=3/2+8 ---8 perpendicular lien would have a slope of 2/3

parallel lines have the same slope so any equation with with the same slope will be parallel if it has the same degree.

ex. y=2x+14 is parallel to y= 2x+56

slope can be found using the following formula if you have two sets of points on the same line

m= y2-y1 ÷ X2 - X1
