Answer: x = -14/5
Step-by-step explanation: We shall begin by expanding the brackets for both sides of the equation
-2/3 (x + 2) = 1/6 (x + 6)
(-2x/3) -4/3 = (x/6) + 1
By collecting like terms we now have
(-2x/3) - (x/6) = 1 + 4/3
(-4x - x)/6 = 7/3
-5x/6 = 7/3
By cross multiplication we now have
-5x (3) = 7 (6)
-15x = 42
x = -(42/15) {simplify further by dividing the RHS by 3}
x = -14/5
Therefore x equals, minus fourteen over five (-14/5)
Answer:
1/3, -7
Step-by-step explanation:
Before answering this, I will need to assume that you actually meant
y = (1/3)x - 7. Comparing this to y = mx + b, we see that the slope, m, is 1/3 and the y-intercept, b, is -7.
it means the distance around a two dimensional shape.
To find the perimeter, add all the side lengths
hope it helps!!!!!!!
