Answer:
a = 6, b = - 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Expand the left side and compare the coefficients of like terms to those on the right side.
a(4x - 10) ← distribute parenthesis
= 4ax - 10a
Compare to 24x + 5b , then
4a = 24 ( divide both sides by 4 )
a = 6
Then
5b = - 10a = - 10(6) = - 60 ( divide both sides by 5 )
b = - 12
Answer:
x=6
Step-by-step explanation:
5x+9-3x=21
5x-3x=21-9
2x=12
x=6
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Just by looking at the graph you can eliminate some silly answers such as D and B, everything besides the slope is obvious at least:
The y int is -2
The line is negative
The standard parent function equation is just y = x with a slope of 1.
This graph is clearly a bit steeper than the normal parent function, so it has a slope that is great than -1, not less . So the only answer left is A
If you want to be sure, you can calculate the slope using rise over run and the slope should be somewhat close to -1.5 which is equal to -3/2
Thanks me later :)
Answer:
-7
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's try getting rid of the numbers to isolate the x.
Add x on both sides to get rid of the x on the right side and to get 2x on the left side. This leaves us with 15.3 + 2x = 1.3
Subtract 15.3 on both sides to get rid of the 15.3 on the left side.
This would leave us with 2x = -14
Divide 2 on both sides to isolate the x.
The answer is x = -7
