-2(x + 3) = 8
Multiply -2 with x and 3
-2x -6 = 8
Now add 6 to both sides
-2x -6 = 8
+6 +8
-2x = 16
Lastly divide -2 from both sides to find x
-2x = 16
—— —-
-2x -2x
X = -8
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
The basic form of the equation is y=mx+b. The b stands for the y-intercept. In this equation, 8 is b due to its position in the equation, and -8/7 is m. Since we know that 8 is b and that b is the y-intercept, we know that 8 is the y-intercept.

Answer:
None of these answers are correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
Perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes, which means that we take the slope and we flip it. After we've done that, we change the sign.
Since the original slope is -7, first we flip it and get -1/7. Now we change the sign and get 1/7. Therefore, the perpendicular slope of this line would be 1/7
Turn everything into decimals:
sqrt(3) is about 1.732
sqrt(5) is about 2.236
pi is about 3.14
2sqrt(3) is about 3.464
Now we can organize from least to greatest:
sqrt(3)<sqrt(5)<pi<2sqrt(3)
