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)
Answer:
The best fit line is 
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given,
The table representing the number of miles run in different weeks is,
Week Miles Run
1 5
2 8
4 13
6 15
8 19
10 20
Using the linear regression calculator, we see that,
<h3>The equation of the line best fit for the data is
.</h3>
<span>(8,9) m = 0.5
point slope form
y - y1 = m (x - x1)
so
equation
y - 9 = 0.5(x - 8)
answer
</span>
y - 9 = 0.5(x - 8)
