Answer:
2x + 6 = -18
x + 1 = -11
3x = -36
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the solution! Then you can create your own equations
2x+9=-15
2x=-24
x=-12
Thus u need solutions with:
x = -12
Knowing the equation of a line as:
y = mx + b
we can can start by making y = -12 (our solution)
mx + b = -12
Now we can pick a value for m and b by adding and miltiplying on both sides
We do this to keep both sides equal.
if we make m = 2 and b = 3:
2x + mb = -12*m + 2b
2x + 6 = -24 + 6
2x + 6 = -18
Solving this we also get x = -12, as we expect.
An alternative way to think about it is to imagine that we start with a simple equation and make it more complex. We have our solution:
x = -12 => lets add a b value!
x + b = -12 + b => Lets add a slope (m)
xm + bm = -12m + bm
Giving values for this can give you multiple equation of the same solution.
General Formula:
m(x+b) = m(y+b)
mx + bm = my + bm
1680. 8p4, which is 8!/(8-4)!
Answer: " n = - 4 " .
<u>__________</u>
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
<u>Given</u>:
-n + 8 = 12 ; solve for "n" ;
Subtract "8" from each side of the equation:
-n + 8 - 8 = 12 - 8 ;
to get:
-n = 4 ;
Which is the same as:
-1n = 4 ;
Divide each side of the equation by "-1" ; to isolate "n" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "n" :
-1n / -1 = 4 / -1 ;
to get:
" n = - 4 " ; which is our answer.
_______________
Now, let's check our answer:
_______________
→ by plugging in our value obtained for "n" ; which is " - 4 " ;
_______________
-(-4) + 8 ≟ 12 ?? ;
_______________
From the "left-hand sign" of the equation:
_______________
" - (-4) = ⁺ 4 " ;
_______________
<u>Note</u>: The opposite of negative value; or the negative of a negative value; is equal to that very positive value.
_______________
⇒ " 4 + 8 ≟ 12 ? ;
⇒ " 12 ≟ 12 ? ; Yes!
_______________
The correct answer is: " n = - 4 " .
_______________
Hope this helps! Best wishes!

Answer:
I'm getting
y=-7x+8
The 7 is negative for me..You should maybe try yourself too and see what you get I might have made a mistake
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm guessing you live somewhere in the U.S. so I'll use the equation you use there
Equation:


first pick two points
I'll pick (0,8) and (1,1)

this means that the slope is -7
So far the equation will look like this

to get b pick one point, I'll pick (0,8) and replace y and x

when you solve this you'll get b

So the equation will look this
