B. the line is going up so it’s going to be positive not negative. the b value is gonna be negative 1 instead of positive because it crosses the y axis closer to -1 than it does 1
<h3>
Answer:</h3>
x = 1
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
<em>The only solution is an extraneous solution</em>, which is to say the equation has no solution.
The rational expression reduces to -1 (for x≠1), which makes the equation ...
1 = 1/x
The only solution to this is x=1, which is specifically disallowed.
___
If you subtract the right side, the equation becomes ...
((-x+1)(x) +2(x)(x -1) -(x -1))/(x -1) = 0
(-x^2 +x +2x^2 -2x -x +1)/(x -1) = 0 . . . . eliminate parentheses in the numerator
(x^2 -2x +1)/(x -1) = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms
(x -1)^2/(x -1) = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . factor
This is undefined for the only value of x that could possibly be a solution, x=1.
I’m pretty sure you add 78+55= 133
180-133=47
so 9x+2=47
subtract 2 from 47 and itself
so 9x=45
divide 9 and 45 by 9
so x=5
Answer:
They are equal.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we can simplify the second equation by multiplying 7 times 6 and then 7 times 5 due to the distributive property.

Therefore, using the distributive property, they are equal.
