Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

6(x - 1) = 9(x + 2)

Expand :

6(x  -  1) = 6x  -  6 \\ 9(x  +  2) = 9x + 18

6x - 6 = 9x + 18

Collect like terms and simplify

6x - 9x = 18 + 6 \\  - 3x = 24

Divide both sides of the equation by -3

\frac{ - 3x}{ - 3}  =  \frac{24}{ - 3}  \\ x =  - 8

Use a inequality symbol to compare -3x+7 -10-2
abruzzese [7]
Hey there,

Let's remember that a (inequality symbol) is things like (<), (>), (≤),(≥), (≠).

So, I believe that (-3x+7) and (-10-2) are separate. So we will find that out :)

Let's first do (-3x+7). As simplifying this expression here, we take that "x" of for a while and just stick to (-3+7). 

    -3
+   7
______
     4

Let's bring that "x" back, and the answer would be 4x for a while.

So far, 4x is the answer.
_____________________________________________________________

Now, Let's work on the other side.

We are talking about (<span>-10-2)

    -10
-      2
_______
</span>     -12

So, by solving the answer to (-10-2), we got -12.

So, let's determine what is greater . . . . . 

What \ is \ greater?

-12 or 4.

-12 is on the negative side, and the number 4 is positive. This would conclude that 4 is great than -12.

Your correct answer would look like . . . 

<span>(-3x+7) > (-10-2)
</span>
I really hope this helps you alot.

Let f be a linear function such that f(2) =5 and f(6) = -1. find an equation for f(x).
astra-53 [7]
Using f(x) = y, we know that a graph of the function contains the (x,y) points (2,5) and (6,-1). first find the slope of that line,
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) ⇒ -6/4⇒-3/2

then using either point (I'll use the first one) solve for b in y = mx + b.
5 = (-3/2)(2) + b⇒ 5 = -3 + b⇒ 8 = b.

So y = (-3/2)x + 8 ⇒ f(x) = (-3/2)x + 8.
