Answer is A. 18

EXPLANATION-

Its Simplifying
(9x + -44) = (6x + 10)

Reorder the terms:
(-44 + 9x) = (6x + 10)

Remove parenthesis around (-44 + 9x)
-44 + 9x = (6x + 10)

Reorder the terms:
-44 + 9x = (10 + 6x)

Remove parenthesis around (10 + 6x)
-44 + 9x = 10 + 6x

Solving
-44 + 9x = 10 + 6x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-6x' to each side of the equation.
-44 + 9x + -6x = 10 + 6x + -6x

Combine like terms: 9x + -6x = 3x
-44 + 3x = 10 + 6x + -6x

Combine like terms: 6x + -6x = 0
-44 + 3x = 10 + 0
-44 + 3x = 10

Add '44' to each side of the equation.
-44 + 44 + 3x = 10 + 44

Combine like terms: -44 + 44 = 0
0 + 3x = 10 + 44
3x = 10 + 44

Combine like terms: 10 + 44 = 54
3x = 54

Divide each side by '3'.
x = 18

Simplifying
x = 18

Anna [14]

Answer:

x=3

y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 6-y

-plug in (6-y) into first equation

2(6-y)+3y = 15

12-2y+3y=15

-2y+3y = 3

y=3

x=6-3

x=3

double check:

(2*3) + (3*3) = 6 + 9 = 15

3 + 3 = 6

Find the equation of the line perpendicularly to y=3x - 6 that runs through the point (-1, -3), need help ASAP
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

y = 1/3x - 10/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of one another so m = -1/3

Given (-1,-3)

y = mx + b

-3 = -1/3(-1) + b

-9/3 = 1/3 + b

b = -10/3

so y = 1/3x - 10/3
