Move all terms to the left side and set equal to zero. Then set each factor equal to zero.
x=2
The first answer, using a number line, is a good answer.
I have two other ways:
Way #1:
5 stones is more than 3 stones.
5 gallons is greater than 3 gallons.
5 pounds is greater than 3 pounds.
5 puppies is greater than 3 puppies.
5 hamburgers is greater than 2 hamburgers.
5 schoolbuses is greater than 3 schoolbuses.
We look around us, and we see that 5 of anything
is always greater than 3 of the same thing.
There's no reason that should change if the 'things' are eighths.
Way #2:
-- Get 2 friends to help you.
-- Take one good-size veggie pizza or coconut cream pie.
-- Carefully cut it up in eight (8) equal pieces.
Now each piece is 1/8 of the pie or the pizza.
-- Give 5 pieces (5/8) to the first friend.
Give 3 pieces (3/8) to the other friend.
-- Ask them to get together and agree on who has more.
10) (9,-3); m=2
(a) y=2x-11
Plug in the variables that are constant on both the given line and the new one.
y=mx+b
-3=2(9)+b
Do not input b, as the y intercept is relative to the specific line, and not others.
-3=18+b
-3-18=b
-21=b
The y intercept of the new line is -21.
FINAL ANSWER::y=2x-21
(b) y=2x-21
Plug in the variables that are constant on both the given line and the new one.
y=mx+b
-3=2(9)+b
Do not input b, as the y intercept is relative to the specific line, and not others.
-3=18+b
-3-18=b
-21=b
The y intercept of the new line is -21
FINAL ANSWER::y=2x-21
Or equivalent to the original.
Hope this helps you solve the rest. ;)
Answer:
-29x-5
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the distributive property 5(-5x - 1 ) so…
-25x - 5
-4x - 25x - 5
combine like terms: -29x - 5
so you’re answer is -29x - 5
i hope this helps :)
