Start with -3x + 2 = -7
Subtract 2 from each side
-3x = -9
Divide each side by -3
x = 3
Answer:
The answer is D) 60
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is telling you that the length of the rectangle is 3 metres more than twice the width.
So let:
<em>w= width</em>
<em>L= length</em>
Because the length is 3 metres more than twice<em> </em>the width: <em>L= </em><em>2</em><em>w+</em><em>3</em>
They also tell you the perimeter is 48 metres.
<em>P= L+L+w+w</em>
So the equation of the perimeter is:
<em>48= (2w+3)+(2w+3)+2w +2w</em>
<em>48= 2(2w+3) + 4w</em>
To find w, expand and simplify.
<em>48= 4w+6+4w</em>
<em>48= 8w + 6</em>
<em>42= 8w</em>
<em>5.25=w</em>
Now that you know the width, plug in the value into the length equation:
<em>L= 2w+3</em>
<em>L=2(5.25)+3</em>
<em>L=10.50+3</em>
<em>L=13.5</em>

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
eq. of line parallel to AB is y=2x+a
if it passes through (3,-2) then
-2=2×3+a
a=-2-6=-8
y=2x-8
The line of best fit is given by the equation y = 1.56x - 4.105
<h3>
Linear equation</h3>
A linear equation is in the form:
y = mx + b
where y, x are variables, m is the rate of change (slope) and b is the y intercept.
