Slove 3/4(5x-3)+8=17. Show your work​

Mathematics

Vlada [557]2 years ago

So first you would simplify 3/4(5x-3) to 3(5x-3)/4
So it would be 3(5x-3)/4+8=17
2. Subtract 8 from both sides
3(5x-3)/4=17-8
3. Then simplify 17-8 to 9
3(5x-3)/4=9
4. Multiply both sides by 4
3(5x-3)=9x4
5. Simplify 9x4 to 36
3(5x-3)=36
6. Divide both sides by 3
5x-3=36/3
Simplify 36/3 to 12
5x-3=12
8. Add 3 to both sides
5x=12+3
9. Simplify 12+3 to 15
5x=15
10. Divide both sides by 5
X=15/5
Simplify 15/5 to 3
X=3
So your answer is x=3

Find the slope and the y-intercept of the line <br> Y=-5/4x+8
insens350 [35]

Explanation: This is a linear equation because it's written in slope-intercept form or <em>y = mx + b</em> where the multiplier or the coefficient of the x-term represents the slope of the line and the<em> b</em> represents the constant term.

So the slope will be the coefficient of the <em>x-term</em> which means the number that is in front of the <em>x</em> which in this case is -5/4.

The y-intercept is the constant term which is +8
