Answer:
x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
2(x – 2) + 6 = 0
~Distribute left side
2x - 4 + 6 = 0
~Combine like terms
2x + 2 = 0
~Subtract 2 to both sides
2x = -2
~Divide 2 to both sides
x = -1
Best of Luck!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hmmmmm you did not give the full equation for the original line.
However, parallel lines have identical slopes. Whatever coefficient (m) is associated with the x value, will be the slope of the parallel line when the equation is put in the form
y = mx + b
Answer:
x=11 (read below)
Step-by-step explanation:
7 + x = 18
<em>Subtract 7 from both sides</em>
x=11
It's quite simple because if you do something to one side of the equation, you need to do it to the other because otherwise the equation won't be equal. This is how you need to simplify most problems, by taking something from one side and taking from the other as well.
2/3 is the same 4/6
7/2 is the same as 21/6
4/6 + 21/6 = 25/6
So the answer is 25/6, not 25/5.
