Answer:

x=-5 or -5

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 4 = 2x + 1

Subtract x from both sides canceling out the x on the left, getting...

-4 = x + 1

Then subtract the 1 from both sides canceling out the 1 on the right, getting...

-5 = x

Subtracting x from 2x gets you 1x which you just write as x because there is only one x. Doing the equation from the other side will still get you the same answer and I will show you.

x - 4 = 2x + 1

-x - 4 = 1

-x = 5

x = -5

Hope this helps!

Addition (must show work) can someone solve 1. m + 13 =29 2. z + x =34 3. 87 + p = 136

azamat

Greetings ! Your Answer Is Below.

Answer;

1. m = 16

2. x = -z + 34 or z = -x + 34

3. p = 49

Step-by-step explanation;

1. m + 13 - 13 = 29 - 13 | Subtract 13 from both sides ( m = 16 )

2. - z + 34 | Add -z to both of the sides ( x = - z + 34 )

Or - x + 34 | Add -x to both of the sides ( z = - x + 34 )

3. 136 - 87 = 49 | Subtract 87 from both sides ( p = 49 )

What is the awnser to the circled equations?

pshichka [43]

Answer:

$y = - \frac{1}{3}x - 1$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to write an equation of a line which passes through the given point (-9,2) and is perpendicular to the given straight line y = 3x - 12 ........... (1)

Now, equation (1) is in the slope-intercept form and the slope of the line is 3.

Let, m is the slope of the required line.

So, 3m = -1

{Since, the product of the slopes of two perpendicular straight lines is -1}

⇒ $m = - \frac{1}{3}$

Therefore, the equation of the required line in slope intercept form is

$y = - \frac{1}{3} x + c$ {Where c is a constant}

Now, this above equation passes through the point (-9,2) point.

So, $2 = - \frac{1}{3} \times (-9) + c$

⇒ 2 = 3 + c

⇒ c = - 1

Therefore, the equation of the required straight line is $y = - \frac{1}{3}x - 1$ (Answer)
