Answer:

x = -6; the number is -6!

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a somewhat wordy question, but it is actually easy to solve once you write it down!

It should look like this:

$5x-2=7x+10$

See? It's simple! Now we just solve from there.

$5x-2=7x+10\\-2x-2=10\\-2x=12\\x=-6$

Of 10<br> Find the gradient of the line segment between the points (2,-2) and (0,-6).

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 2</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The gradient of a line given two points can be found by using the formula

$m = \frac{ y_2 - y _ 1}{x_ 2 - x_ 1} \\$

From the question we have

$m = \frac{ - 6 - - 2}{0 - 2} = \frac{ - 6 + 2}{ - 2} = \frac{ - 4}{ - 2} = 2 \\$

We have the final answer as

I need to know the answer

2 days late, but the answer is no solution. solving a system of equations means finding where they intersect, but by looking at these equations, you know that they never intersect--they're parallel.

they share a slope (2), making them either parallel or "the same line", but the different x-intercepts (9 and -9) mean that they're different lines. they have no solution, or no intersection point, because they're parallel lines.
