4 0

Answer:

x= -6

Step-by-step explanation:

17=-2x+5

17-5=-2x+5-5

12= -2x then divided both side by -2

-6=x

2(4 - 2r) = -2(r + 5)
Alexus [3.1K]
2(4 - 2r) = -2(r + 5)

First, divide both sides by -2. / Your problem should look like: -4 + 2r = r + 5
Second, regroup your terms. / Your problem should look like: 2r - 4 = r + 5
Third, add 4 to both sides. / Your problem should look like: 2r = r + 5  + 4
Fourth, add r + 5 + 4 to get r + 9. / Your problem should look like:2r = r + 9
Fifth, subtract r from both sides. / Your problem should look like: 2r - r = 9
Sixth, subtract 2r - r to get r. / Your problem should look like: r = 9

Answer: r = 9

What equation has a slope of 2 and goes through the point (3, 2)?
kaheart [24]

Answer:

y = 2x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll write our equation in y = mx + b form, with m being the slope and b being the y-intercept. We already know our slope, so we can replace m with 2 like this: y = 2x + b. But we don't know what b is. We can use the point (3, 2) to figure out b's value, since it has an x-value (3) and a y-value (2):

2 = 2(3) + b

2 = 6 + b

-4 = b

So we have y = 2x + (-4), or y = 2x - 4.

Hopefully that was helpful! If you have more questions, let me know.

Let f(x)=−log(4x)+5.
Aloiza [94]
To solve the average rate of change, use the formula of the slope:
m = ( y2 - y1 ) / ( x2 - x1 )
but first we must solve the value of the function when x = 3

f(3) = - log ( 4 * 3 ) + 5
f (3) = 3.92

solve the function when x = 8
f(8) = - log ( 4 * 8) + 5
f(8) = 3.49

so the average rate of change
m = ( 3.49 - 3.92 ) / ( 8 - 3)
m = - 0.09

4x - 9x + 3 = -32<br> A: -7<br> B: -35/13<br> C: -29/5<br> D: 7
baherus [9]

Answer:

D.) x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - 9x + 3 = -32

The first thing we do is combine like terms which means to add or subtract or multiply or divide any numbers that are known. Here in this equation we have 4x and - 9x

4x - 9x + 3 = -32

- 5x + 3 = - 32

Now what we do is subtract the common numeral from the side where the x value is.

- 5x + 3 = - 32

- 3. - 3

- 5x = - 35

Lastly, we divide here we take the value next to x and divide both numbers, here we will divide by - 5.

- 5x = - 35

- 5x / - 5 = x

- 35 / - 5 = 7

Now we take are two solutions and create are final solution.

x = 7
