One way in which to approach this problem would be to treat it as an equation of ratios and to cross multiply:
<span>[(4x + 15) / 5x)] = 1/2 could be written as:
4x + 15 1
----------- = ---
5x 2
Then 8x + 30 = 5x
3x = -30, and so x = -10 (answer). Be certain to check this answer through substitution!

Answer:
y=8
Step-by-step explanation:
Point slope is y2-y1 over x2-x1
So its 8-(-6) over 8-8 which equals 14/0 which means the equation of the line is y=8
This is a horizontal line on 8 on the y axis
There's more than one way to combine them really
but an obvious one will be
Answer:
144/5
Step-by-step explanation:

Ex.
f + g = y
-----------
3
3(f+g) = (y) 3
--------
3
f + g =3y
f - f + g = 3y - f
g = y - f
