Answer:

The answer would be 3.33.

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying 12x + 5 = 3x + 35

Reorder the terms: 5 + 12x = 3x + 35

Reorder the terms: 5 + 12x = 35 + 3x

Solving 5 + 12x = 35 + 3x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3x' to each side of the equation. 5 + 12x + -3x = 35 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 12x + -3x = 9x 5 + 9x = 35 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0 5 + 9x = 35 + 0 5 + 9x = 35

Add '-5' to each side of the equation. 5 + -5 + 9x = 35 + -5

Combine like terms: 5 + -5 = 0 0 + 9x = 35 + -5 9x = 35 + -5

Combine like terms: 35 + -5 = 30 9x = 30

Divide each side by '9'. x = 3.333333333

Simplifying x = 3.333333333

The graphed line shown below is y=-3x+6

Bezzdna [24]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

$y=-3\left(x+6\right)$

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

From the given graph, we can know two points:

$P_{1}(x_{1},y_{1})=(2,0) \ and \ P_{2}(x_{2},y_{2})=(1,3)$

Using the slope intercept form of the equation of a line, we get:

$y-y_{1}=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}(x-x_{1}) \\ \\ y-0=\frac{3-0}{1-2}(x-2) \\ \\ y=-3(x-2) \\ \\ y=-3x+6$

Where the slope is $m=-3$ and the y-intercept is $b=6$

From mathematics, we know that a system of two linear equations has no solution if and only if the two equations have the same slope, but not the same y-intercept. So, from the options, the second equation is:

$y=-3(x+6)$

And the slope intercept form of this equation is:

$y=-3x-18$

So the slope is $m=-3$ and the y-intercept is $b=-18$ , the systems formed by these two equations has no solution.

Simplify: x^2-16/x-4 What does the given expression simplify to? What is the excluded value of x for the given expression?

Ksenya-84 [330]

Step-by-step explanation:

Difference of Squares: a² - b² = (a + b)(a - b)

(x² - 16) / (x - 4)

= [(x + 4)(x - 4)] / (x - 4)

= x + 4, where x =/= 4.
