Answer:

<h3>Negative one-half (negative 2) (x + 3) = negative 10 (negative one-half)</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

- 2 (x + 3) = - 10

The first step in solving the expression is to multiply both sides by -1/2 as shown;

-1/2(-2)(x+3) = -1/2(-10)

(x +3) = 1/2(10)

x + 3 = 5

x = 5-3

x = 2

Hence the correct option is Negative one-half (negative 2) (x + 3) = negative 10 (negative one-half)

Which of the following is the equation of a line that passed though the points (2,5) and (4,3)
STatiana [176]

The correct answer is C as it has the same line of equation. We can make this clear by verifying that these two points make the same equation or not. So as we can see if we calculate the gradient using the formula y2 - y1 / x2 - x1.

As we now know that the gradient is -1. We can simply put any one point in the equation y - y1 = m(x - x1) to get the line of equation. WHen we calculate the line of equation it come out to be y = -x + 7
