If the value of a is positive, the line slopes upwards.
Answer:
Free points?!?
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the x. Subtract 4x from both sides, and add 2 to both sides
2x (-4x) - 2 (+2) > 4x (-4x) + 6 (+2)
2x - 4x > 6 + 2
Simplify. Combine like terms
-2x > 8
Isolate the x. Divide -2 from both sides. Note that you are <em>dividing a negative number</em>. When doing so, flip the sign.
-2x/-2 > 8/-2
x > 8/-2
x < -4
x < -4, or (1) is your answer
hope this helps
X+ y = 10
2x = 2y+4
2x/2 = 2/2y+4/2
x = y + 2
x+y = 10
y+2+y=10
2y + 2 = 10
2y +2-2 =10-2
2y = 8
2y/2 =8/2
y = 4
x + y =10
x + 4 =10
x +4-4 =10-4
x = 6
Check
2x = 2y +4
2(6) = 2(4) +4
12 = 8+4
12= 12
