3(14 - 5x) = 16 - 12x

Distribute 3 throught the parentheses

42 - 15x = 16-12x

Move the variable to the left-hand side and change its sign

42 - 15x + 12x = 16

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

- 15x+12x=16 - 42

Collect like terms

- 3x =  - 26

Divide both sides of the equation by -3

\boxed{x =  \frac{26}{3} }

  • \sf \: 3(14 - 5x) = 16 - 12x

  • \sf \: 42 - 15x = 16 - 12x

  • \sf \:  - 15x + 12x = 16 - 42

  • \sf \:  - 3x =  - 26

  • \sf x =  \frac{ \cancel -26}{  \cancel- 3}

  • \large   \boxed{\sf \underline{ \color{green}x =  \frac{26}{ 3} }}

Please help me asap ty ty :)

Answer:

x-intercept = (-9,0)

y-intercept = (0,27)

Step-by-step explanation:

So first we will convert 9x - 3y = -81 into slope intercept form (y=mx+b).

Subtract 9x on both sides to get -3y = -9x -81. Next divide -3 on both sides to get y = 3x + 27.

Since b is the y-intercept, in y=mx+b and 27 is in the position of b, we can already tell that 27 is the y-intercept. So we will write it as (0,27) because coordinates are supposed to be written as (x,y).

Now in order to find the x-intercept, we will have to plug in 0 for y, in the original equation, so we can solve for x.

So we have: 9x -3(0) = -81

Since 3 × 0 = 0, we now have 9x - 0 = -81. So next we add 0 on both sides to get 9x = -81, and then we divide by 9 to get x = -9. So we will write this as (-9,0).

Hope this helps you :)
