Answer:
x = -7
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+6 = x-1
add -6 to both sides
2x = x-7
add -x to both sides
x = -7
5x+x-3=9
6x-3=9
cancel out 3 3+3 9+3
6x=12 divide six by 6 and by 12 too.
x=12/6=2
x=2
Answer:
x = 10
y = 70
Step-by-step explanation:
By using the vertical angles theorem we know that x+ y +10 = 90, also simplified to x + y = 80
and 2x + y = 90
By using the substitution method on x + y = 80, it will be y = -x + 80
When you put into the equation 2x + y = 90 you will get 2x -x +80 = 90
Then it will simplify to x = 10
After that plug 10 into x + y = 80 to 10 + y = 80 and get y = 70
Answer:
y=-3x+4
Step-by-step explanation:
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(-8-7)/(4-(-1))
m=-15/(4+1)
m=-15/5
m=-3
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-7=-3(x-(-1))
y-7=-3(x+1)
y=-3x-3+7
y=-3x+4
To solve this, we simply need to remember our rules about order of operations. They tell us that first, we should distribute the 2 with the rest of the parentheses.
5-2(x-3)
5-2x+6
Next, we should combine our like-terms.
5-2x+6
11-2x
Seeing as we do not know the value of the variable, the simplest form of the expression is 11-2x.
