5x – 2(x + 7) = -5
mutiply the bracket by -2
(-2)(x)= -2x
(-2)(7)= -14
5x-2x-14=-5
3x-14= -5
move -14 to the other side, sign changes from -14 to +14
3x-14+14= -5+14
3x= 9
divide by 3 for both sides
3x/3= 9/3
x= 3
Answer: x= 3
The overall amount of money left is $201.
She added $400, $125, and $50 in to her bank account. If you add all those up, you get a total of $575 deposited. But she also withdrew $300 and $74. If you add those together, you get $374. Now just subtract $374 to $575 and you’ll get the sum of $201.
400+125+50=575
374+74=374
575-374=201
20% of 30 is 6. 30-6 is 24. He now works for 24 hours! Please mark brainliest!!!
The answer to this problem is that they are parallel.
Answer:
y=4/5x+2
Hi! first things first, you want to find the slope. you do that by taking both y values, in this case they are 2 and -6.
then, you need to identify the two 2 x values, 5 and -5.
next, follow this formula: Y2-Y1/X2-X1. y value#2 is -6, and y value#1 is 2. subtract those numbers, to end up with -8. this will go on top of the fraction. x value#2 is -5, x value#1 is 5. subtract (=-10) and put it on the bottom of the fraction.
now you have your slope! we now have y= -8/-10, or simplified is 4/5.
Now we find the y intercept. to do that, you want to pick a set of points. i'm going to be using (5, 2) because it will be the easiest.
lastly, set up the equation to find the y int: y- y1= m (x- x1)
y- 2= 4/5 (x- 5) = 2
