Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

In an equation our aim is to find the value of what we are looking for as well as keeping the equation balanced. For example if we took away 4 only from one side then the equation would change so it's an important rule to keep in mind when solving equations, that you need to keep both sides of the equation the same.

4 ( 2x - 1 ) = 3x - 19

→ Expand the brackets

8x - 4 = 3x - 19

→ Minus 3x from both sides to isolate -19 and bring all the x coefficients to one side

5x - 4 = -19

→ Add -4 to both sides to isolate 5x

5x = -15

→ Divide both sides by 5 to isolate x and therefore find the value of x

x = -3

→ We can substitute x = -3 back into 4 ( 2x - 1 ) = 3x - 19 to see if we have the correct solution, if we end with the same number on both sides then  x = -3 is correct.

4 ( 2x - 1 ) = 3x - 19

8x - 4 = 3x - 19

( 8 × -3 ) - 4 = ( 3 × -3 ) - 19

-24 - 4 = - 9 - 19

-28 = -28

So x = -3 is correct

The image shows the energy that can be generated from the Earth's water and the pull of the Moon's gravity.
tester [92]

Answer:

It is tidal energy, which is a renewable resource

Step-by-step explanation:

Tidal energy is is the energy produced when interaction of earth water masses and Moon's gravitational pull takes place. when moon's gravitational pull occurs on ocean water, currents and motion is produced in ocean water which leads to rise in water. when earth rotates this rise in water meets the shallow region of water near the shore and hence tide is created. This motion of  rise and fall of water stores energy which is called tidal energy.

Renewal source is one which does not gets depleted and is replenished by nature. It's quantity will not get reduced with consumption.

example is sunlight : sunlight is renewable energy as everyday day this energy is produced . no matter how much it is consumed on earth for a day. Next day it will be again produced by earth.

Since, tides are regularly occurring phenomenon hence they are source of renewable tidal energy produced by them

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-5,5)and has a slope of -1
erastova [34]

Answer:

<h2>           y = - x  </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of the equation is y - y₀ = m(x - x₀), where (x₀, y₀) is any point the line passes through and m is the slope:

m = -1

(-5, 5)    ⇒   x₀ = -5,  y₀ = 5

The point-slope form of the equation:

y - 5 = -1(x + 5)

So:

y - 5 = -x - 5         {add 5 to both sides}

y = -x             ←  the slope-intercept form of the equation
