What is the answer to -2x+2(5x+18)=-4

Mathematics
1 answer:
adell [148]3 years ago

Answer:

x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x+2(5x+18)=-4

The first thing you would have to do is distribute the positive 2 with 5x and 18 so that means you would multiply those two number inside the parenthesis.

-2x+ 10x+ 36=-4              2(5x)=10x     2(18)=36

Now you combined like terms on the other side of the -4. So since -2x and 10x are like terms because of the variables you would do -2x+10x=8x. So now your equation is 8x+36=-4. So now you want you x by itself so you would subtract 36 on both sides so positive 36 subtracted by 36 is 0 now you subtract 36 to -4 so that equals -40 because you did -4-36=-40. So now you have 8x=-40 so now you divide both sides by 8x so -40/8=-5

x=-5

What is the equation in point−slope form of the line passing through (−2, −5) and (2, 3)?
blagie [28]
Your answer would be c)

Point slope form formula is y-y1=m(x-x1), where m is slope and x1 and y1 are coordinates to a point on your graph.

To find your slope, you will need to use the formula y2-y1/x2-x1, also known as change in y over change in x or rise over run. So then you would have [3-(-5)]/[2-(-2)], which gives you slope (m) =2.

Then you can rule out letters A and D because the slope in those answers is incorrect (-2).

Next, you take your coordinate points (x,y) (2,3) and substitute them in your equation.

So, you have y-3=2(x-2)

*notice that the difference between b and c is that the x and y values on the coordinate points are in the wrong places. You need to have y-(your y coordinate) and then x-(your x coordinate) in your point slope equation.
