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
Answer:
m = 10/3
<em>(as a decimal: m = 3.333...)</em>
<em />
Step-by-step explanation:
5m - 8 = 2m + 2
5m - 8 = 2m + 2
- 2m - 2m <em>(make all "m" on one side to isolate variable)</em>
3m - 8 = 2
+ 8 + 8 <em>(get m entirely on 1 side)</em>
3m = 10
÷3 ÷3 <em>(divide by 3 to get 1m)</em>
m = 10/3
<em>(as a decimal: m = 3.333...)</em>

Answer:
1 4/5
Step-by-step explanation:
10x^2y^-2 = 10 x (-1)^2 x (-2)^-2 = 10 x 1 x 1/4 = 10/4 = 2 1/2
Use slope intercept form for equation, which is y = mx +b. m is slope and b is the y-intercept.
Find slope by change in y over change in x. So pick two points, for example (0, 24) and (2, 20). Slope (m) will be
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (24-20)/(0-2)
= 4/-2
m = -2
Y-intercept is 24.
Equation is y = -2x + 24
