To simplify, we need to find a number that can divide both the numerator and denominator equally. Can you find a number that will do this? I can't. So it is already simplified.
To solve this equation we must first plug in 5 for x.

<span> (5 - 4x)
</span>↓

(5 - 4 · 5)
The next step would be to multiply 4 by 5 to get rid of the parenthesis within our main parenthesis.

(5 - 4 · 5)

(5 - 20)
The next step would be to subtract both of the numbers within the parenthesis.

(-15)
Now we must multiply.
-

· 15 = -

-

Now we simplify our answer to get our final answer.
-5
Vertex coordinates: (h, k)
Vertex form: y = a(x-h)^2 + k
y = 2(x+3) + 2(x+4)
Use distributive property:
y = 2((x+3)+(x+4))
Simplify:
y = 2(2x+7)
y = 4x+14
This is slope - intercept form, not vertex form. Vertex form is for quadratic equations - this is a linear equation.
Answer (in slope - intercept form):
y = 4x+14
X will be 8.49
the other side is 6 too
The answer to this is letter D
