Isolate the x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS (Parenthesis, Exponents (& roots), Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction)
First, subtract 6 from both sides
-4x + 6 (-6) = -38 (-6)
-4x = -38 - 6
-4x = -44
Next, fully isolate the x by dividing -4 from both sides
(-4x)/-4 = (-44)/-4
x = -44/-4
x = 11
11 is your answer for x.

The problem statement tells you "7 friends were playing basketball".
_____
It appears 5 friends were only playing basketball, 2 friends were playing basketball and having snacks, and 3 friends were only having snacks. Apparently, 10 friends were doing neither of those activities.
Hi!
Explanation: <u><em>This question is super easy. First you had to used 10^8 and it gave us 100,000,000. You can also multiply by 19.2*100,000,000 and it gave us the answer is 1,920,000,000 is the right answer. Hope this helps! And thank you for posting your question at here on Brainly. And have a great day. -Charlie</em></u>
Answer:
1/3 and -1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
You can use the factoring method to identify the solutions of x
6x^2+x-1
2 numbers have to multiply to 6 and subtract to 1 because x is the same as 1x
So, you get 3x and 2x
since you know that -1x1 is -1 you will get
(3x-1)(2x+1)=0
Now, since (3x-1) and (2x+1) multiply to get 0, if either (3x-1) or (2x+1) is 0 the statement will be valid
3(1/3)-1=0
2(-1/2)+1=0
So, your answers are 1/3 and -1/2
Answer:
y = 5x+7
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have the same slope so y = 5x+9 is in slope intercept form
y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
The slope is 5
The new line will have a slope of 5
y = 5x+b
We know a point on the line (-2,-3)
Substitute this point into the equation
-3 = 5(-2)+b
-3 = -10+b
-3+10 = b
7 = b
y = 5x+7
