-3(-5x+2)+x=42
Distribute the -3 to the -5 and 2 so you would be left with
15x-6+x=42
Then you combine like terms and the x’s
16x-6=42
Add the 6 to the 42
16x=48
Then divide by 16 on both sides
X=3

I hope that helped.

Answer:

x = 3.873 units

or x = \sqrt{15} units

Step-by-step explanation:

Hypotenuse = 4  ,  x = height of this isosceles triangle.

base is 2,

so Use Pythagorean Theorem.

x^2 + 1^2 = 4^2

x^2 =  4^2 - 1^2

x^2 = 16 - 1 = 15

x = root(15) =

Solve y = mx + b for x.<br>this is really confusing to me please help​
hram777 [196]

Answer:

x = \frac{y-b}{m}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y = mx + b ( isolate the term in x by subtracting b from both sides )

y - b = mx ( divide both sides by m )

\frac{y-b}{m} = x

How would I graph these equations?<br><br> a. 2x + 3y = 12<br><br> b. x = 7
riadik2000 [5.3K]
These are 2 very different equations, and should be graphed very differently.

<u>A
</u>
<u /><u />For Part A, we must first put this in Slope Intercept Form (SIF), which is y=mx+b where "m" is the slope and "b" is the y-intercept. To do this, we should solve like a normal equation for y.

 2x+3y=12
-2x       -2x
 3y=-2x+12
 /3        /3
y=-2/3x+4

Now that we have the proper equation, it is simply to graph! We should simply make a point at (0, 4), and then go down 2, right 3 until you are satisfied with your line.

<u>B
</u>
Part B is a simple x value, which means you will draw a vertical line through 7 on the x-axis.

Below I have attached a clearly labeled graph that shows you examples of these lines. The red markings indicate x=7. The yellow circle shows you the y-intercept in Part A, while the yellow dots show you the slope in Part A.
