Answer:
x = 6 and x = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
-2/3x + y = -7
Step-by-step explanation:
So, y = 2/3x - 7 is the slope-intercept equation. Now, we need to turn it into the standard equation of a slope.
Standard equation --> Ax + By = C
y = 2/3x - 7
-2/3x -2/3x
----------------------
-2/3x + y = -7 --> this is your equation in standard slope form.
Call the number : x
(1/3)x + 5 = x-6
=> (1/3)x + 5 - (x-6) = 0
=> (1/3)x + 5 - x + 6 = 0
Group (1/3)x with -x, 5 with 6
=> [(1/3)x - x] + (5+6) = 0
=> (-2/3)x + 11 = 0
=> (-2/3)x = -11
=> x = -11 : (-2/3) = 33/2.
Recheck : 1/3 x 33/2 + 5 = 33/6 + 5 = 63/6 = 21/2
33/2 - 21/2 = 12/2 = 6 (21/2 is 6 less than 33/2, satisfied.)
Yes, because the probability of choosing an odd number is equal...
2x+5x-4=31
7x-4=31
7x=35
X=5
ST=5x-4= 5.5-4=25-4=21
