Answer:

1. x = -1.5y

2. 5 (2x-3)

3. p = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Simplifying

7x + 2y + -3x + 4y = 0

Reorder the terms:

7x + -3x + 2y + 4y = 0

Combine like terms: 7x + -3x = 4x

4x + 2y + 4y = 0

Combine like terms: 2y + 4y = 6y

4x + 6y = 0

Solving

4x + 6y = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Add '-6y' to each side of the equation.

4x + 6y + -6y = 0 + -6y

Combine like terms: 6y + -6y = 0

4x + 0 = 0 + -6y

4x = 0 + -6y

Remove the zero:

4x = -6y

Divide each side by '4'.

x = -1.5y

Simplifying

x = -1.5y

Common factor

10x - 15

5 (2x-3)

3) Simplifying

5p = 3p + 8

Reorder the terms:

5p = 8 + 3p

Solving

5p = 8 + 3p

Solving for variable 'p'.

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

Add '-3p' to each side of the equation.

5p + -3p = 8 + 3p + -3p

Combine like terms: 5p + -3p = 2p

2p = 8 + 3p + -3p

Combine like terms: 3p + -3p = 0

2p = 8 + 0

2p = 8

Divide each side by '2'.

p = 4

Simplifying

p = 4

which of the following represents the equation of the line with an x- intercept of 6 that passes through the point (4,4)?

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

$y=-2x+12$

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the equation of a line, find the slope between two points. Substitute two points into the slope formula. If the equation has an x-intercept of 6 then the line passes through the point (6,0). Use (6,0) and (4,4) in the formula.

$m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} =\frac{4-0}{4-6} =\frac{4}{-2} =-2$

Since m = -2, substitute its value and the point (6,0) into the point slope form. Then simplify.

$y-y_1 = m(x-x_1)\\y-0 = -2 (x-6)\\y=-2x+12$
