Answer: -x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

So I assume that the question would be set up like this if you are finding the sum of all 3 terms:

(x + 5) + (-4x - 2) + (2x - 1)

1) Take out parentheses

x + 5 - 4x - 2 + 2x - 1

2) Add like terms

For the x terms:

x - 4x = -3x

-3x + 2x = -x

For the other terms:

5 - 2 = 3

3 - 1 = 2

The sum of the terms is <u>-x + 2</u>

The cost per slice of pizza is proportional to the number of slices as shown in the graph. What do the points ( 0, 0 ) and ( 1,
Semmy [17]

Answer:

The points represent the price per slice

Step-by-step explanation:

If the cost per slice of pizza is proportional to the number of slices, as shown in the graph, that means the points on the graph represent the price per slice.

Therefore, point (0,0) means that 0 slices of pizza cost $0, and point (1, 2) means that 1 slice of pizza costs $2.

Anyone know how to check solution, please help if u do
Ivenika [448]
Let's check your answer. To do this, you would simply plug your answer into the equation and see if it works. 
5(y - 3) - 2 (3 - 2y) = 6
5(3 - 3) - 2(3 - 2 × 3) = 6

The equation works! 

Y = 3

Great work!

Remember

we can do anything to an equation as long as we do it to both sides

try to isolate the variable

you have 2 types
x+b=c
x/b=c

fior the first type, minus b from both sides to get
x=c-b

for the second, multiply both sides by b to get rid of the fraction to get
x=cb

also remember that -x times -1=x



b.add 25 to both sides
-a=20
multiply -1
a=-20


c.
-t/8=-4
multiply both sides by 8
-t=-32
mutiply -1
t=32

d. -n/-5=-30
mulitply both sides by -5
-n=150
multiply both sides by -1
n=-150

e. multiply both sides by 12
-l=144
multiply b y-1
l=-144
