Answer:
No solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Actually, you have only one equation here. We will solve it for x.
Performing the indicated multiplication, we obtain:
10-2(2x+1)=4(x-2) => 10 - 4x - 2 = 4x - 8, or 10 - 2 = -8. This can never be true, so this equation has no solution.
Answer:
2x - 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Twice a number x means x times 2, which can be written as 2x
Minus 17 from 2x
Slope intercept form is y=mx+b so the answer is y=x+5
You can work this out by rearranging the equation and isolating the x.
4x + 12 = 36
4x = 36 - 12 (I moved the +12 to the other side, which means it becomes -12)
4x = 24 (36 - 12 = 24)
x = 24 / 4 (You need to isolate the x, and because it was being multiplied by 4, I divided both sides by 4 to leave me with just x)
x = 6 (24 divided by 4 is 6).
