Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Eliminate parentheses:
0.1x +18.8 = -4 +2x
22.8 = 1.9x . . . . . . . . . add 4 - 0.1x
12 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 1.9
__
2) Eliminate parentheses:
-16 +4x = 0.8x +12.8
3.2x = 28.8 . . . . . . . . add 16 - 0.8x
x = 9 . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 3.2

<em>Comments on the solutions</em>
The expression we add in each case eliminates the constant on one side of the equation and the variable term on the other side. That leaves an equation of the form ...
variable term = constant
We choose to eliminate the smaller variable term (the one with the coefficient farthest to the left on the number line). Then the constant we eliminate is the on on the other side of the equation. This choice ensures that the remaining variable term has a positive coefficient, tending to reduce errors.

You can work these problems by methods that eliminate fractions. Here, the fractions are decimal values, so are not that difficult to deal with. In any event, it is good to be able to work with numbers in any form: fractions, decimals, integers. It can save some steps.
Assuming you meant the x2 as x squared, then:
(11x+4)(11x-4)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope intercept form equation of a straight line is expressed as
y = mx + c
Where
m represents slope
c represents y intercept.
Comparing the given equations with the slope intercept form equation,
2) y = 4x + 14 is in the slope intercept form. Its slope is 4 and the intercept is 14.
3) y = -4x + 14 is in the slope intercept form. Its slope is - 4 and the intercept is 14.
4) y = 2x + 7 is in the slope intercept form. Its slope is 2 and the intercept is 7.
5) y = -2x + 7 is in the slope intercept form. Its slope is - 2 and the intercept is 7.
Hi There!

Problem #1:
At the dealership where she works, Sade fulfilled 3/10 of her quarterly sales goal in January and another 1/10 of her sales goal in February. What fraction of her quarterly sales goal had Sade reached by the end of February?
3/10 + 1/10 = 4/10
4/10 of her goal.
----------------------------------------
Problem #2:
Shane has been monitoring his mileage. According to last week's driving log, he drove 1/10 of a mile in his car and 9/10 of a mile in his truck. How far did Shane drive last week in all?
1/10 + 9/10 = 10/10 = 1
Shane drove 1 mile.
----------------------------------------
Problem #3:
For a class experiment, Vina's class weighed a log before and after subjecting it to termites. Before subjecting it to termites, the log weighed 7/10 of a pound. After the termites, the log weighed 3/10 of a pound. How much weight did the termites take from the log?
7/10 - 3/10 = 4/10
The termites took 4/10 pound away from the log.
