How do you solve -2/3x + 5 = 20 - x

Mathematics
1 answer:
Monica [59]3 years ago
8 0

-2/3x + 5 = 20 - x

subtract 5 from each side

-2/3 x = 15 -x

add x to each side

-2/3 x +x = 15

get a common denominator of 3 for the x terms

-2/3x + 3/3 x =15

combine like terms

1/3 x = 15

multiply by 3 on each side

x = 45

Answer: x=45

Which equation is y = –3x2 – 12x – 2 rewritten in vertex form?
Andrej [43]
<span>The general equation of a quadratic is expressed as y = ax^2+bx+c. To convert the general equation to vertex form, we need to obtain this form:

(y- k)= a(x - h)^2

This could be done by using completing the square method.

</span><span>y = –3x^2 – 12x – 2
</span><span>y + 2 = –3(x^2 + 4x) 
</span>y + 2 -12 <span>= –3(x^2 + 4x + 4) 
</span>y - 10 = -3(x+2)^2

Therefore, the answer is the first option.

Rewrite the equation to isolate the variable.. df= g- 10 for d
ehidna [41]
Df = g - 10

To solve for d, divide both sides by f.

df / f = (g - 10) / f

d = (g - 10) / f

I hope this explains it.
