Five times the quantity s + 6 equals 3 times the quantity s - 2. What value of s makes this sentence true?

Mathematics

5(s + 6)= 3(s - 2)
multiply 5 and 3 by their parentheses

5s + 30= 3s - 6
subtract 3s from both sides

2s + 30= -6
subtract 30 from both sides

2s= -36
divide both sides by 2

s= -18


CHECK:
5(s + 6)= 3(s - 2)
5(-18 + 6)= 3(-18 - 2)
5(-12)= 3(-20)
-60= -60


ANSWER: The value of s that makes the statement true is -18.

Hope this helps! :)

Find the equation of the line specified. The line passes through the points ( 7, -7) and ( 6, -5)
dolphi86 [110]
Simple...

you have: (7,-7) and (6,-5)

Using \frac{ y_{1}-  y_{2} }{ x_{1}-  x_{2} } to find slope--->>>

\frac{-7--5}{7-6} = \frac{-2}{1}

=-2

m=-2

Using y=mx+b to find the equation of the line-->>(Use any of the coordinates)

(7,-7)

-7=-2(7)+b

-7=-14+b

-7=-14+b
+14  +14

7=b

y=-2x+7

Thus, your answer.
