5 (2x – 1) –7 = 2 (x – 3)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Sladkaya [172]3 years ago

Answer:

x−3=x−3

Step-by-step explanation:

Evaluate (2x−1)−7, then set it equal to 2.

Subtract 7 from −1 = 2x−8

Solve 2x−8=2.

Move all terms not containing x to the right side of the equation.

Add 8 to both sides of the equation=2x=2+8

Add 2 and 8=2x=10

Divide each term by 2 and simplify.

Divide each term in 2x=10 by 2=2x/2=10/2

Cancel the common factor of 2

Cancel the common factor=10/2

Divide x by 1=x=10/2

Divide 10 by 2=x=5

Remove parentheses=x−3

List all of the solutions.

5=

(2x−1)−7=2=x=5

x−3=x−3

Write the slope intercept form of the equation given the point (-2,4) and a slope of 3
Hitman42 [59]

Given the points:

(x, y) ==> (-2, 4)

slope, m = 3

To write the slope intercept form, use the form below:

y = mx + b

Where m = slope and b = y-intercept.

Now, substitute -2 for x, 4 for y, and m for 3 in the equation above to solve for b.

We have:

y = mx + b

4 = 3(-2) + b

4 = -6 + b

Add 6 to both sides:

4 + 6 = -6 + 6 + b

10 = b

b = 10

Therefore, the slope intercept form of the equation is:

y = 3x + 10

ANSWER:

y = 3x + 10

What are the ordered pairs of the
9966 [12]

Start by writing the system down, I will use y to represent f(x)

y=x^2-5x+3\wedge y=-3

Substitute the fact that y=-3 into the first equation to get,

-3=x^2-5x+3

Simplify into a quadratic form (ax^2+bx+c=0),

x^2-5x+6=0

Now you can use Vieta's rule which states that any quadratic equation can be written in the following form,

x^2+x(m+n)+mn=0

which then must factor into

(x+m)(x+n)=0

And the solutions will be m,n.

Clearly for small coefficients like ours 5,6, this is very easy to figure out. To get 5 and 6 we simply say that m=3, n=2.

This fits the definition as 5=3+2 and 6=2\cdot3.

So as mentioned, solutions will equal to m=3, n=2 but these are just x-values in the solution pairs of a form (x,y).

To get y-values we must substitute 3 for x in the original equation and then also 2 for x in the original equation. Luckily we already know that substituting either of the two numbers yields a zero.

So the solution pairs are (2,0) and (3,0).

Hope this helps :)
