8x - 9 - 5x = 3x - 36 - 18x

1 answer:

8 0

Answer:

$8x - 9 - 5x = 3x - 36 - 18x \\ 8x - 5x - 9 = 3x - 18x - 36 \\ 3x - 9 = - 15x - 36 \\ 3x = - 15x - 36 + 9 \\ 3x = - 15x - 27 \\ 3x + - 15x = - 27 \\ - 12x = - 27 \\ x = \frac{ 27}{12}$

How can 1/5x − 2 = 1/3x + 8 be set up as a system of equations? a . 5y − 5x = −10. 3y − 3x = 24 b. 5y − 5x = −10. 3y + 3x = 24 c

VMariaS [17]

The answer is d. 5y − x = −10. 3y − x = 24

$\frac{1}{5}x-2= \frac{1}{3}x+8=y$
⇒    $y= \frac{1}{5}x-2$
   $y= \frac{1}{3}x+8$
________________________
$y= \frac{x}{5} -2= \frac{x}{5} - \frac{10}{5} = \frac{x-10}{5}$
$y= \frac{x}{3} +8= \frac{x}{3} + \frac{24}{3} = \frac{x+24}{3}$
________________________
$y= \frac{x-10}{5}$ ⇒    $5y=x-10$
$y= \frac{x+24}{3}$   ⇒    $3y=x+24$
________________________
$5y-x=-10$
$3y-x=24$

Write the equation 5x − 2y = 10 in the form y = mx + b. y equals start fraction five over two end fraction x minus 10 y equals s

Answer:

y = 5/2x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to rearrange the equation so that it is equal to y.

5x - 2y = 10

(5x - 2y) - 5x = -5x + 10

-2y = -5x + 10

(-2y)/-2 = (-5x)/-2 + (10)/-2
