Solve for x math question

Mathematics
1 answer:
Colt1911 [192]3 years ago
8 0

Square both sides

9(x + 2) = x + 4

Expand

9x + 18 = x + 4

Subtract x from both sides

9x + 18 - x = 4

Simplify 9x + 18 - x to 8x + 18

8x + 18 = 4

Subtract 18 from both sides

8x = 4 - 18

Simplify 4 - 18 to -14

8x = -14

Divide both sides by 8

x = -14/8

Simplify 14/8 to 7/4

<u>C. x = -7/4</u>

A line passes through point (-2, 5) and has a slope of 5/2.
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

5x-2y=-20

Step-by-step explanation:

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-5=5/2(x-(-2))

y-5=5/2(x+2)

y-5=5/2x+10/2

y-5=5/2x+5

y=5/2x+5+5

y=5/2x+10

y-5/2x=10

-5/2x+y=10

2(-5/2x+y)=2(10)

-10/2x+2y=20

-5x+2y=20

5x-2y=-20
