4(7-x) = 5(x+2)
you would give 4 and 5 to everything in the parenthesis
28-4x = 5x+10
then subtract 10 on each side
28-4x = 5x+10
-10 -10
18-4x = 5x
then add 4x on each side
18-4x = 5x
+4x +4x
18 = 9x
x = 2

<em>ANSWER:</em>

Multiply the parenthesis by the number before.

28-4x=5x+10

Add 4x to both sides.

28-4x=5x+10

28=9x+10

Subtract 10 from both sides.

18=9x

Divide both sides by 9.

Point-Slope Form<br> *See photo*

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

y = 3x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the equation 'y = 3x + ?' intersects the point (1, -2). This means that when x = 1, y = -2 in out equation above. To solve this just plug in the x and y values to get '?'.

$y = 3x + ?\\-2 = 3(1) + ?\\-5 = ?$

Now that we know '?' is -5, we write it back into slope intercept form, so our final answer is y = 3x - 5

100 + 5x = y

100 +5x = 310

Solve x2 + 12x = –11 by completing the square. Which is the solution set of the equation?

Ann [662]

If you would like to solve the equation x^2 + 12 * x = -11, you can calculate this using the following steps:

x^2 + 12 * x = -11
<span>x^2 + 12 * x + 11 = 0
</span>(x + 1) * (x + 11) = 0
1. x = - 1
2. x = - 11

The correct result would be x = - 1, or x = - 11.
