Mathematics

Answer:

x= -\frac{5}{6} or 0.83

Step-by-step explanation:

-4x=2x+5

First, you subtract 2x from both sides

-4x - 2x = 2x - 2x + 5

-6x = 5

Divide both sides by the coefficient of x(The coefficient of x here is -6)

\frac{-6x}{-6} = \frac{5}{-6}

x = -\frac{5}{6}

OR

In decimal form⇒ 0.82828282...

                         ≅ 0.83

∴ x = -\frac{5}{6} or 0.83

Hope this helps!!!

you are left with -6x=5

divide 6 on both sides

you get -.8333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333

Which equation is in point-slope form for the given point and slope?
faust18 [17]

Answer: y-7 = 4(x+3), choice B

============================================

Point slope form is generally

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

we have m as the slope and (x1,y1) as the point this line goes through. In this case,

m = 4

(x1,y1) = (-3,7) so x1 = -3 and y1 = 7

So,

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y - 7 = 4(x - (-3))

y - 7 = 4(x + 3)

which is why choice B is the answer
