Answer 1

Answer:

required Value of x is x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given two points: (5,8) and (x,14) and slope =2 . We need to find value of x.

The formula used to find slope is: $Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We are given slope =2 , x₁=5, y₁=8, x₂=x, y₂=14

So, we actually need to find value of x₂. Putting values in formula and find value of x

$Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\2=\frac{14-8}{x-5}\\Solving:\\2(x-5)=6\\2x-10=6\\2x=6+10\\2x=16\\x=\frac{16}{2}\\x=8$

So, required value of x=8
