Answer:

x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Original equation:

2(2x - 7) = -34

Use distributive property

2 · 2x = 4x

2 · (-7) = -14

Plug these values back into the equation

4x - 14 = -34

Add 14 to both sides

4x = -20

Divide both sides by 4

x = -5

Hope this helps :)

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

37.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the shorter piece be x and the longer piece be 5x.

Short piece + Long piece = 285 inches

x + 5x = 225

6x = 225

x = 225 ÷ 6

x = 37.5

Find the slope x+11=0

Delvig [45]

Answer:

The slope is undefined.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given line is $x+11=0$

This implies that;

$x=-11$ .

This is a vertical line.

The slope of a vertical line is undefined.

You can think of it as;

$0y+x+11=0$

This implies that;

$y=-\frac{1}{0}x-\frac{11}{0}$

The slope is $m=-\frac{1}{0}$ , which is not defined.

X + 14= -6 idk what the answer is please help me right away

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

x = -20

Step-by-step explanation:

You move the 14 with the 6, since it is addition, it changes symbols ( from + to - ), so it'd be;

x = -6 - 14, since you are subtracting a negative number, you are technically adding them.
