Answer:
-23
Step-by-step explanation: You have to combine like terms first:
-3.8x -5.9x =223.1
-9.7x = 223.1
Then divide om each side of the equation by -9.7.
-9.7x/-9.7 = 223.1/-9.7
x =- 23

Start off by distributing the numbers into the parentheses:
5(-3x - 2) - (x - 3) = -4(4x + 5) + 13
-15x - 10 - (x - 3) = -16x - 20 + 13
(Note: It's super important to be careful when opening up negative parentheses! -(x-3) is not just - x - 3, it is actually -x + 3 since the negative is distributed in every number!)
-15x - 10 - x + 3 = -16x - 20 + 13
-16x - 7 = -16x - 7
-16x = -16x
0 = 0
There is an infinite number of solutions in this equation.
(When you get 0=0 when solving for a variable, that means that said variable will have infinite solutions, that is, any number plugged into the equation will work)
The only error you made is on problem 3. Everything else is correct. Nice work.
-------------------------------------------------------
Here is how to solve problem 3
Plug x = 1 into the equation and solve for y
-3x + y = 1
-3*1 + y = 1 ... replace x with 1
-3 + y = 1
y - 3 = 1
y - 3 + 3 = 1 + 3 .... add 3 to both sides
y = 4
<h3>The answer is 4</h3>
-------------------------------------------------------
Verifying the answer:
Plug (x,y) = (1,4) into the equation. Both sides should be the same number after simplifying both sides.
-3x + y = 1
-3*1 + 4 = 1 ..... replace x with 1; replace y with 4
-3 + 4 = 1
1 = 1
The answer is confirmed.
If you were to graph -3x + y = 1, which is equivalent to y = 3x+1, you'll find that the point (1,4) is on this line.
F(x)=a(x-x1)(x-x2)
F(x)=a(x- - 6)(x- -2)
F(x)=a(x+6)(x+2)
-6=a(-3+6)(-3+2)
-6=a(3)(-1)
-6=-3a
2=a
Equation: f(x)=2(x+6)(x+2)
