Answer: 5
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 3x+2=17
2. 3x+2-2=17-2 ( we subtract 2 from both sides)
3. then we simplify 3x=15
4. \frac{3x}{3}=\frac{15}{3} then i divide both sides by 3
5. and as we simplify, x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
red y = -3/2 x - 3 m = -3/2 (y2-y1) / (x2 - x1) b = -3
blue y = 2x + 3 m = 2 rise/run b = 3
black your turn m = ? (0, -1) and (3, 0) two points on the black line
m = ? (y2-y1) / (x2 - x1) = (0-(-1)) / (3 - 0) = (0+1)/(3-0)
m = ?
b = the y value when x = 0, which is one of the points
Answer:
x= 10, y= 6
Step-by-step explanation:
2x -3y= 2 -----(1)
-2x -y= -26 -----(2)
(1) +(2):
2x -3y -2x -y= 2 -26
-4y= -24
y= -24 ÷(-4)
y= 6
Substitute y= 6 into (1):
2x -3(6)= 2
2x -18= 2
2x= 18 +2
2x= 20
Divide both sides by 2:
x= 20 ÷2
x= 10
Answer:
Incorrect
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the equation:
Add both sides by 9.
When we want to tell if the absolute equation has solutions or not, we have to simplify in this form first: or isolate the absolute sign.
If c ≥ 0, the equation has solutions.
If c < 0, the equation does not have solutions.
Therefore, it does not always matter if the constant on right side is in negative because if there is a number on the left side then there is a chance that the equation has solutions.
From |3x+8| = 4 is equivalent |3x+8|-9=-5 and the right side is 4 which is positive.
Hence, the equation does have a solution!
