5x+9 = 10x-9
Take 5x from both sides
9 = 5x-9
Add 9 to both sides
18 = 5x
Divide by 5
3.6=x
Steps to simplify:
(2x + 3)(x - 7)
~Use FOIL to multiply
(2x * x) + (2 * -7) + (3 * x) + (3 * -7)
~Simplify
=2x² - 14x + 3x - 21
~Combine Like Terms
2x² + (-14x + 3x) - 21
~Simplify
2x² - 11x - 21 (Option 2)
Best of Luck!

These are the steps. Just follow the numbers on the left hand side. Hopes this helps. The answer is -3.
Answer:
y = 3.5x - 12.5
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find the slope using rise over run (y2 - y1 / x2 - x1) with the 2 points:
(-2 - 5) / (3 - 5)
-7/-2
= 3.5
Then, plug the slope and a point into y = mx + b to solve for b:
y = mx + b
5 = 3.5(5) + b
5 = 17.5 + b
-12.5 = b
Plug the slope and the y intercept into the equation y = mx + b
y = 3.5x - 12.5 will be the equation
