Add seven to both sides of the equal sign. Now you have 3x= -18
Then divide by three on each side. Now you have x= -6
Then plug it in.
-6^2-6(-6)+9
The answer to that is 9
Answer:
x² - x - 12 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
0 = -x² + x + 12
→ Add x² to both sides
x² = x + 12
→ Minus x from both sides
x² - x = 12
→ Minus 12 from both sides
x² - x - 12 = 0
Answer:
Shira: x = 8
Samuel: m = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Shira's mistake was that she subtracted 2 from both sides instead of adding to on both sides.
Correct Solving:
2x - 2 = 14
Add 2 to both sides;
2x = 16
Divide both sides by 2;
x = 8
Samuel's mistake was that when he distributed -2 to 8m and 8 he put the wrong sign for -2 * 8.
Correct Solving:
-2(8m + 8) = -16
Distribute;
-16m - 16 = -16
Add 16 to both sides;
-16m = 0
Divide both sides by -16;
m = 0

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of a line is the same everywhere, so an equation can be written making use of that fact.
Cross-multiplying gives ...
2(y -5) = x -2
2y -10 = x -2 . . . eliminate parentheses
2y = x +8 . . . . . . . add 10; next, divide by 2

These equations match choices B and D.
Answer:
u=18
Step-by-step explanation:
u/3 =6
Multiply each side by 3
u/3*3 =6*3
u = 18
