Here, 2/3x = -12
2x = -12 * 3
2x = -36
x = -36/2
x = -18

In short, Your Answer would be -18

Hope this helps!

The answer is x = -13. This is because first, we need to multiply 3 to both sides (so that it's going to be easier to isolate x). So now we have 2x = - 36. Next, you divide 2 to both sides (to isolate x). Therefore, you now have x = -13. I hope this helps :D

HELP PLEASE!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

x = 15°

Step-by-step explanation:

7x + 28° = 133° { being vertically opposite angles }

7x = 133° - 28°

7x = 105°

x = 105° / 7

x = 15°

< WPZ = 133° {being vertically opposite angles }

OR

< WPZ = 7x + 28° = 7 * 15 + 28° = 133°

Hope it will help :)❤

the equation of the line a is given as y = -3/4 x -2. Suppose the line a is parallel to line b and lime t is perpendicular to li
Burka [1]

Answer: The equation for line b is y = -\frac{3}{4}x  + 5

The equation for line t is y= \frac{4}{3} x+5

The attachment shows the original line in green, the parallel line b in red, and the perpendicular line t in blue.

Step-by-step explanation: Use slope intercept form, y = mx + b

The given coordinate, (0,5) is on the y-axis, so  5 will be the y-intercept of the equation. Keep the slope of the original equation and substitute the new value for "b"  

To write the equation for line t

Both lines share the y-intercept, (0,5) so the "b" term will be the same. The slope of a perpendicular line is the reciprocal of the original slope with the opposite sign.

So invert 3/4 to become 4/3 and change the negative sign to positive.

The resulting equation is y = 4x/3 + 5

What value of x is in the solution set of 3(x – 4) ≥ 5x + 2?
alisha [4.7K]
Hey!


To start solving equation, we should first distribute the parenthesis. We do this so that we can get rid of the parenthesis.

<em>Original Equation :</em>
3 ( x - 4 ) ≥ 5x + 2

<em>New Equation {Changed by Distribution} :</em>
3x - 12 ≥ 5x + 2

Next, we'd add 12 to both sides of the equation to get rid of the 12 on the left side of the equation.

<em>Old Equation :</em>
3x - 12 ≥ 5x + 2

<em>New Equation {Changed by Adding 12 to Both Sides} :</em>
3x ≥ 5x + 14

Now we subtract 5x from both sides of the equation to get rid of the 5x from the right side.

<em>Old Equation :</em>
3x ≥ 5x + 14

<em>New Equation {Changed by Subtracting 5x From Both Sides} :</em>
-2x ≥ 14

Now we must inverse the inequality. To do that we multiply both sides by -1.

<em>Old Equation :</em>
-2x ≥ 14

<em>New Equation {Changed by Inverse} :</em>
2x ≤ -14

Just by looking at the equation, you can easily tell that it needs to be simplified. So, that's what we'll do next.

<em>Old Equation :</em>
2x ≤ -14

<em>New Equation {Changed by Dividing Both Sides by Two} :</em>
x ≤ -7

Seeing as the equation cannot be simplified any further, we have our answer.
<em>The value of x in the inequality </em><span><em>of 3 ( x – 4 ) ≥ 5x + 2, is </em> x </span>≤ -7.

Hope this helps!
