To solve for x, we must first isolate the term containing x which in this problem is 5x.

Since 10 is being added to 5x, we subtract 10 from both sides of the equation to isolate the 5x.

On the left, the +10 and -10 cancel out and on the right, 20 - 10 is 10 and we have 5x = 10.

Now we can finish things off by just dividing both sides of the equation by 5. On the left the 5's cancel and on the right, 10 divided by 5 is 2 so x = 2.

Complete the equation of the line through (3, -1) and (4, 7)

Answer:

y = 8x -25

Step-by-step explanation:

The two-point form of the equation of a line can be used.

y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1

y = (7-(-1))/(4-3)(x -3) +(-1)

y = 8(x -3) -1

y = 8x -25 . . . . slope-intercept form of the equation

We don't know what you're starting with, so we don't know how to "complete the equation." Perhaps the above equation is sufficient for the task.

Which property states that for all real numbers, x, y and z, if x = y and y = z, then x = z ?

Leto [7]

Answer:

The transitive property of equality

Step-by-step explanation:

The transitive property states if a=b and b=c then a=c. If two things are equal and one of those two things is equal to another thing, then they all must be equal.
