5x+29 = 45
5x = 16 (subtract 29 from both sides)
x = 16/5.
That is the answer, I don't know where you got the value of 5 but it doesn't make sense. To prove it, let's try put it into the equation:
5x5 + 29 =45
25 + 29 = 45
Wrong! 25 + 29 = 54.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y = 2x + 11
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing we need to do
is to find the slope of the line that passes through the points (-4,-3) and (4,1)
Mathematically, that would be;
m = y2-y1/(x2-x1)
where (x1,y1) = (-4,-3) and (x2,y2) = (4,1)
substituting these. values we have;
m = (1-(-3))/(4-(-4)) = 4/8 = 1/2 or 0.5
Now we are told this line is perpendicular to another line that passes through another point.
We can find the slope of this other line
Since both lines are perpendicular, the product of their slope is -1.
Thus , -0.5 * m = -1
m = -1/-0.5 = 2
So the slope of the other line is 2
Using the point-slope form;
y-y1= m(x-x1)
The point for the other line is (-4,3)
So the equation will be
y-3 = 2(x+4)
y-3 = 2x + 8
y = 2x + 11
36/48 simplified is 3/4
divide both by 12
36÷12
3
48÷12
4
