Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
You solve a linear equation by putting the variable on one side of the equal sign and a constant on the other side. Here, variables and constants are on both sides of the equal sign, so you need to separate them.
The basic idea is that you add the opposite of any term you don't want. Whenever you perform any operation (like "add"), <em>you must do it to both sides of the equation</em>.
We observe that x-terms have coefficients of 10 and 9. We choose to add the opposite of 9x to both sides:
10 -9x -5 = 9x -9x +2
x -5 = 2 . . . . simplify
Now, we still have -5 on the left, where we don't want it. So, we add its opposite (+5) to both sides:
x -5 +5 = 2 +5
x = 7 . . . . simplify
The solution is x = 7.

<em>Additional comment</em>
If we were to end up with an x-coefficient other than 1, we would divide both sides of the equation by that coefficient. This will leave the x-term with a coefficient of 1.
Answer:
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
you can plug any number from the graph on the line and it's still going to equal something, i'm sorry this is really bad explaing but when it's a straight line you can plug anything in and still get an answer
