(x + 6)/2 - (x - 8)/3 = 5
Multiply each term by 6:-
3(x + 6) - 2(x - 8) = 30
3x + 18 - 2x + 16 = 30
3x - 2x = 30 -18 - 16
x = 30 - 34

11 2/3
Answer:
y= -2/5 x -4
Step-by-step explanation:
So the equation is y=mx+b. Where m=slope and b=y-intercept. To find b, you would see at what point does the line cross the y axis. That would be at -4 so, -4 would be the b or y-intercept. To find m, you would take two points on the line and use this equation:
m=(y2 - y1 )/(x2 - x1)
If you were using the points, (-10,0) and (0, -4) the equation would be:
m=(-4-0) / (0+10)
So, m= -2/5
The equation of the line would end up being:
y= -2/5 x -4
