How to solve this problem 15 = 5x

Mathematics
1 answer:
Lostsunrise [7]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x = 3 (see below)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for x, you need to isolate the variable to one side of the equation. To do that, you need to use reverse operations. For example, the reverse operation of subtraction is addition.

In this case, we have:

15 = 5x

5x is the same thing as 5 (x) or 5 times x. This means the reverse operation is division. So, we need to divide both sides of the equation by 5:

15 = 5x

-----   ----

5       5

--------------

3 = x

x = 3

Which function is described by values in the table?
Sveta_85 [38]

One way to approach this problem is to go ahead and find the actual equation in slope-intercept form.


The slope of the line thru (3,6) and (5,4) is m = (6-4) / (3-5), or -2/2, or -1.

Subbing the known values of m, x and y, we get:

4 = -(5) + b. Then b = 9.

The correct equation (representing the data values in the table) is y = -x + 9.
