-1/3(x - 15) = -4

step 1 : multiply both sides by -3, step 2 : add 15 to both sides

because when u multiply both sides by -3, this cancels out the -1/3 on the left side leaving u with : x - 15 = -4 * -3.....x - 15 = 12.....and then u would add 15 to both sides....giving u : x = 12 + 15.....x = 27

Rewrite the following linear equation to slope form :y+2=7(2x-4)
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

y = 14x -30

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form is:

y = mx + b,

Slope intercept form is useful for finding the slope and y intercept of a line, hence why it is called "slope intercept" because it is easy to see the slope and the y intercept of a line in this form. Since the slope denoted by m, and y intercept denoted by b are clearly given.

y + 2 = 7(2x - 4)

Distribute 7 across the parentheses by multiplying x and 2x and 4 by 7.

y+2 = 14x - 28

subtract 2 from both sides. This cancels the 2 on the left and moves it to the right, while keeping the equation balanced.

y+2 -2 = 14x - 28 -2

y  = 14x - 30

y = 14x -30

As you can see our y = 14x -30 now looks like the point slope equation we had above. m = 14, and  b = -30. This means the line goes up 14 for every single unit you move to the right, and intersects the y axis at  (0, -30).

Please mark me brainliest.

Solve the system using the substituion method<br> -4x+y=8<br> x-3y=9
lions [1.4K]
Hi there!

x - 3y = 9
x = 9 + 3y
 
-4x + y = 8
-4(9+3y) + y = 8
-36 - 12y + y = 8
-36 - 11y = 8
-11y = 44
-y = 4
y = -4

x - 3y = 9
x - 3(-4) = 9
x + 12 = 9
x = 21

So, your answers are y = -4 and x = 21.

Hope this helps!
