y=x+14 line 1
y=3x+2 line 2
These are both the equation of lines written in slope intercept form
y=mx+b where m is the slope and the point (0,b) is the y intercept.
The first line has a slope of m=1. The 2nd line has a slope of m=3
Since these lines have different slopes, they are not parallel, thus they will cross at some point. What you have to determine is where the lines cross, which will be a point (x,y) that is on both lines.
We already have y solved in terms of x from either equation so we can use substitution to solve the system.
Since y=x+14 from line 1, put x+14 in place of y in the equation of line 2.
x+14=3x+2
solve for x.
Subtract x from both sides...
14= 3x-x+2
14=2x+2
subtract 2 from both sides
14-2=2x
12=2x
divide both sides by 2
6=x
We now have the x value of the common point. Plug the value 6 in for x in one of the original equations and solve for y.
y=6+14
y=20
These two lines cross at the point (6,20) which is a point the two lines have in common.

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Equation</u>
7(2x - 5) = 21
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Distribute 7: 2x - 5 = 3
- Isolate <em>x</em> term: 2x = 8
- Isolate <em>x</em>: x = 4
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: 7(2(4) - 5) = 21
- Multiply: 7(8 - 5) = 21
- Subtract: 7(3) = 21
- Multiply: 21 = 21
Here we see that 21 does indeed equal 21.
∴ x = 4 is the solution to the equation.
We can use trigonometry. The cosine of 15 will be the side adjacent to the 15-degree side (the one we are looking for) divided by 20, the hypotenuse. As cos(15) is about .966, we get 19.32 as the side we are looking for.
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
A commutative function means that when you insert one function in space of x in the other function, they will equal x. The equation is f(g(x)) = g(f(x)) = x
So, 2(
) - 1 = 
If you multiply both sides by <em>a</em>, you get 2<em>a</em>() - a = (2x-1)+1
Simplify it 2<em>a</em>() - <em>a</em> = 2x
Add <em>a</em> to both sides 2<em>a</em>() = 2x +<em>a</em>
The two <em>a</em>s on the left cancel out 2(x+1)=2x+<em>a</em>
Distribute the 2 2x+2=2x+<em>a</em>
Then subtract 2x from both sides 2 = <em>a</em>
Therefore, <em>a</em> = 2
Hope this helps!
