3x-4=13
First you want all your x's on one side, and all your ordinary numbers on the other.
Add four to both sides to get rid of the "-4" part on the left.
Your new equation is 3x = 17
Divide each side by 3 to find X.
x= 17/3 or 5 2/3
Essentially 11(4d + 6) = 11*4d + 6*11
44d + 66
Solving for X:
1) y=-8x+6.5 y=-4x+11
2) -8x+6.5=-4x+11
3) -8x=-4x+11-6.5 (Subtract 6.5 from both sides)
4) -8x+4x=11-6.5 (Add 4x to both sides)
5)-4x=4.5
5)x=-1.125
Solving for Y:
y=-8(-1.125)+6.5
y=9+6.5
y=15.5
y=-4(-1.125)+11
y=4.5+11
y=15.5
x=-1.125
y=15.5
or
(-1.125,15.5)
