Answer: -8.5625

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distributive property....   ex: 8(x+1)= 8x+1 (by multiplying both by 8)

8x+1-31x-124=14-7x

Combine like variables

-23x-123=14-7x

Bring like variables to the same side of the equation by changing the sign(+,-)

-16x=137

Divide -16 by both sides

x=-8.5625

I just need an explanation on why I was wrong and why the correct answer is correct
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Definition of: Coefficient</em></u>

A number used to multiply a variable.

<u><em>Example:</em></u> 6z means 6 times z, and "z" is a variable, so 6 is a coefficient.

Variables with no number have a coefficient of 1.

<u><em>Example</em></u>: x is really 1x.

<em><u>coefficients:</u></em>

3<em>x⁴</em>+ 5<em>x²</em> + 1<em>x</em>

<u><em>sum of the coefficients:</em></u>

3 + 5 + 1

8 + 1

Answer it pls and explain too​

Answer:

  y-intercept: (0, 5); slope: 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope (m) is found from ...

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

Using the first two points in the table, this is ...

  m = (8 -6)/(12 -4) = 2/8 = 1/4 . . . . . eliminates choices A and C

__

Then, the point-slope form of the equation of the line can be written as ...

  y -y1 = m(x -x1)

  y -6 = (1/4)(x -4) . . . fill in known values

  y = 1/4x -1 +6 . . . . . add 6

  y = 1/4x +5

Then the value of y when x=0 is ...

  y = 0 +5 = 5

So, the y-intercept is (0, 5) and the slope is 1/4, matching the last choice.
