Greetings!

<span>"The sum of twice a number and 13 is 75."...

Let's translate this into an equation:
</span>2x+13=75
<span>Solve for x:
Add -13 to both sides.
</span>(2x+13)+(-13)=(75)+(-13)
Simplify.
2x=62
Divide both sides by 2.
(2x)/2=(62)/2
Simplify.
x=31

The variable is equal to 31.

Hope this helps.

What is the axis of symmetry of the function f(x)=-(x+9)(x-21)
Firlakuza [10]
Carry out the mult.:  f(x) = -[x^2 - 21x + 9x - 189] 

Combine like terms:  f(x) = -[x^2 - 12x - 189]
Eliminate the brackets [   ]:      f(x) = -x^2 + 12x + 189
Identify coefficients a, b and c:   a= -1, b=12, c=189

The equation of the axis of symmetry is    x = -b/(2a), which here equals

x = -(12)/[2(-1)], or     x = 6

This is also the x-coordinate of the vertex.  Plug x=6 into the original equation to calculate the y-coordinate.
