Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

3x + 2 = 4x + 5

1. The smaller coefficient of x is 3

to remove the smaller coefficient

we need to add - 3x to both sides

3x +2 + (-3x) = 4x +5 (-3x)

3x + 2 - 3x = 4x + 5 - 3x

Collecting like terms we have

3x-3x+2= 4x-3x+5

2 = x+ 5

2. The constant on the right side is

5,to remove the constant from the right side of the equation we need to add - 5 to both sides

3x + 2+ (- 5) = 4x + 5 +(-5)

3x+ 2-5 =4x +5-5

3x-3 = 4x

What is an equation of a line that passes through the point (-3 -7) and it’s parallel to the line 2x-3y=24
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

y=(-2/3)x-9

Step-by-step explanation:

1) first put the equation in terms of y. You should get y=-(2/3)x-8.

2) parallel lines have the same slope so the slope for this line and the answer should be the same

3) using the form y=mx+b plug (-2/3) in as the slope or m

4) plug the point in to get your b value. you should have -7 =((-2/3)•(-3))+b

5) isolate the variable b and plug in your answer to the equation.

Using technology, we found that Juan’s investment account can be modeled by the function, C(x) = 3x2 - 2x + 5, in thousands of d
lozanna [386]
The value of the initial investment is given when x = 0, so substituting x = 0 into the function, we have

C(0) = 3(0)²-2(0)+5
C(0) = 5

The initial investment is $5
