Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>

3(x - 2) = 2(x + 1)

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Distribute:                                     3x - 6 = 2x + 2
  2. Subtract 2x on both sides:          x - 6 = 2
  3. Add 6 to both sides:                    x = 8

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                    3(8 - 2) = 2(8 + 1)
  2. Subtract/Add:                      3(6) = 2(9)
  3. Multiply:                               18 = 18

Here we see that 18 does indeed equal 18.

∴ x = 8 is a solution to the equation.

Answer:

x = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Since l, m, and n are cut across by the two transversal lines, therefore, the transversal lines are cut off proportionally.

This implies that:

6/x = 10/45

Cross multiply

x*10 = 45*6

10x = 270

10x/10 = 270/10

x = 27

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line through the given points.
9966 [12]

Answer:

y = 7x +2

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

calculate m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 2 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 1, - 5 )

m = \frac{-5-2}{-1-0} = \frac{-7}{-1} = 7

the line crosses the y- axis at (0, 2 ) ⇒ c = 2

y = 7x + 2 ← equation of line
