-4x - 12 = 8

     + 12  +12

<u>-4x </u>=<u> 20</u>

-4     -4

<em>x = -5</em>

To ensure that x equals -5, let's substitute the negative integer with x.

-4 x -5 - 12 = 8

-20 - 12 = 8

8 = 8

Therefore, the answer is x = -5 because we confirmed our answer by substituting x with -5 and solving the equation and got the both sides of the equation equal.

-4x-12=8
Add12 to both sides
-4x= 20
Divide both sides by -4
X= -5

Number 28 ignore the bubbled in answer
Ghella [55]

Answer:

y = -7x+34

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 2 points, so we can find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

    = (6--1)/(4-5)

    = (6+1)/(4-5)

     = 7/-1

    = -7

We can use point slope form to make an equation

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y--1 = -7(x-5)

y+1 = -7(x-5)

Distribute

y+1 = -7x+35

Subtract 1 from each side

y+1-1 = -7x+35-1

y = -7x+34
