Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

You would first distribute.

<u>6(3x + 7)</u> = <u>-5(4x - 3)</u> - 49 → 18x + 42 = -20x + 15 - 49

We can then calculate difference of 15 and 49.

18x + 42 = -20x <u>+ 15 - 49</u> → 18x + 42 = -20x -34

We can now move the variables to one side of the equation and the numbers on the other side.

18x + 20x + 42 - 42 = -20x + 20x - 34 - 42 → 38x = -76

Then, divide.

38x ÷ 38 = -76 ÷ 38 → x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

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

6(3x + 7) = -5(4x - 3) - 49

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

  1. Distribute:                              18x + 42 = -20x + 15 - 49
  2. Combine like terms:              18x + 42 = -20x - 34
  3. Add 20x on both sides:        38x + 42 = -34
  4. Isolate <em>x</em> term:                        38x = -76
  5. Isolate <em>x</em>:                                 x = -2

Which is in an equation of the line through (0,0) and (-8,-5)?
slava [35]

To finde the equation of the line troughh the points (0;0) and (-8;-5) first you must find the slope of the line. You have to use the next formula:

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

Replacing the points in the previous formula

m=\frac{-5-0}{-8-0}=\frac{5}{8}

As the line passes trough the origin of coordinates (point (0;0)) the equation is:

y=\frac{5}{8}x

So the answer is y= 5/8 x (option B)

35x+10. How do I solve this?
kicyunya [14]

Hey there Bfarrar07 !

This is pretty simple when you think about it.

With algebra problems like this, you want to set it equal to zero.

So your first step is to take 35x + 10 and set it equal to zero.

35x + 10 = 0

Then bring the 10 to the other side by subtracting it, so you have something like this:

35x + 10 (-10) = -10 (Remember, what you do to one side you have to do to the other!) So when you take 10 from the left, you have to take ten from the right.

You now have 35x = -10

In order to get x by itself, you need to divide the problem by 35.

35x/35 = -10/35

On the left hand side, the 35's cancel out, so you're left with x.

And on the right hand side you have -10/35

So x = -10/35 (Don't forget to simplify!)

-10/35 can be reduced to -5/7

X = - 5/7

Hope this helps!

What is the solution to the following system of equations?
Paha777 [63]
(-2,-5)
because
y= y
x^2+10x+ 11 = x^2+x -7
10x-x = -7-11
9x=-18
x=-2

so y = (-2)^2+(-2)-7 = 4-2-7 =-5
