Solve 3[-x + (2 x + 1)] = x - 1. x = 2

Mathematics
1 answer:
Gekata [30.6K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

3[- x + (2x + 1)] = x - 1

=  > 3[ - x + 2x + 1 ] = x - 1

=  > 3[x + 1] = x - 1

=  > 3x + 3 = x - 1

=  > 3x - x =  - 1 - 3

=  > 2x =  - 4

=  > x =  \frac{ - 4}{2}  =  - 2

Anyone know how to solve for x and y on this problem?

<h3><u>Answer:</u></h3>

\boxed{\boxed{\pink{\bf \dag Value \ of \ x \ is \ 6\ and\ y \ is\ (-21) .}}}

<h3><u>Step-by-step explanation:</u></h3>

In the Question , its given that ∆ART \cong ∆ DFI . And we need to find the values of x and y . So we know that ,

  • If two triangles are congruent then their Corresponding angles and sides are equal.

Hence here in ∆ ART & ∆ DFI :-

  • AT = DI ( cpctc)
  • AR = DF ( cpctc)

\bf\implies AT = DI \\\\\bf\implies 6x + 31 = 67 \\\\\bf\implies 6x = 67 - 31 \\\\\bf\implies 6x = 36 \\\\\bf\implies x =\dfrac{36}{6}\\\\\bf\implies \boxed{\red{\bf x = 6}}

Hence the value of x is 6 .

\rule{200}2

\bf\implies AR = DF \\\\\bf\implies -4y+19 = 103\\\\\bf\implies -4y = 103-19 \\\\\bf\implies -4y = 84 \\\\\bf\implies y =\dfrac{84}{-4}\\\\\bf\implies \boxed{\red{\bf y = -21}}

<h3><u>Hence </u><u>the</u><u> value</u><u> of</u><u> x</u><u> is</u><u> </u><u>6</u><u> </u><u>and </u><u>y</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>(</u><u>-</u><u>2</u><u>1</u><u>)</u><u> </u><u>.</u></h3>

Find the equation for the line of best fit using the two points that are close to the line of best fit (2,70) and (4.5, 90)
kari74 [83]

Given:

Two points that are close to the line of best fit are (2,70) and (4.5, 90).

To find:

Th equation of best fit line using the given two points.

Solution:

We know that, if a line passes through the two points, then the equation of line is

y-y_1=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)

Two points (2,70) and (4.5, 90) are close to the best fit line.

Consider the two points (2,70) and (4.5, 90). So, the equation of line is

y-70=\dfrac{90-70}{4.5-2}(x-2)

y-70=\dfrac{20}{2.5}(x-2)

y-70=8(x-2)

y-70=8x-16

Adding 70 on both sides, we get

y=8x-16+70

y=8x+54

Therefore, the equation of best fit line is y=8x+54.
