x = -15/8

General Formulas and Concepts:

  2. Parenthesis
  3. Exponents
  4. Multiplication

  • Left to Right  

Equality Properties

  • Division Property of Equality
  • Addition Property of Equality
  • Subtraction Property of Equality<u> </u>

<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Terms/Coefficients

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

-7 - 3x = 1x + 4(2 + x)

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Distribute 4:                                                                                                    -7 - 3x = x + 8 + 4x
  2. Combine like terms:                                                                                       -7 - 3x = 5x + 8
  3. [Addition Property of Equality] Add 3x on both sides:                                -7 = 8x + 8
  4. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 8 on both sides:                      -15 = 8x
  5. [Division Property of Equality] Divide 8 on both sides:                               -15/8 = x
  6. Rewrite/Rearrange:                                                                                        x = -15/8

Point-slope form is y - y1 = m (x + x1)

First you need to find m [slope] by subtract y2 and y1 and divide it by the outcome of x2 - x1

13 - (-9) = 22
-2 - 9 = -11
22/-11 = -2

Plug in the first point (as instructed) into the equation.

y - (-9) = -2 (x - 9)

Simplify the beginning.

y + [9] = [-2] (x + [-9])

(The brackets are the fill in the blanks)

Write the equation for a line that passes through the point (2,5) and a slope of m =10 in point slope form
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

y=10x-15

Step-by-step explanation:

with the points given you know x=2 and y=5

make a new point called (x,y)

now use the formula (y-5)/(x-2)=10 (10 being the gradient)

y-5 = 10(x-2)

y-5=10x-20

add 5 to both sides

y-5+5=10x-20+5

y=10x-15

Which best describes the graphs of the line that passes through (−12, 15) and (4, −5), and the line that passes through (−8, −9)
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

C) They are perpendicular lines.

Step-by-step explanation:

We first need to find the slope of the graph of the lines passing through these points using:

m =  \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

The slope of the line that passes through (−12, 15) and (4, −5) is

m_{1} =  \frac{ - 5 - 15}{4 -  - 12}

m_{1} =  \frac{ - 20}{16}  =  -  \frac{5}{4}

The slope of the line going through (−8, −9) and (16, 21) is

m_{2} =  \frac{21 -  - 9}{16 -  - 8}

m_{2} =  \frac{21  + 9}{16  + 8}

m_{2} =  \frac{30}{24}  =  \frac{5}{4}

The product of the two slopes is

m_{1} \times m_{2} =  -  \frac{4}{5}  \times  \frac{5}{4}  =  - 1

Since

m_{1} \times m_{2} =  - 1

the two lines are perpendicular.
