Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Equation</u>
7(2x - 5) = 21
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Distribute 7: 2x - 5 = 3
- Isolate <em>x</em> term: 2x = 8
- Isolate <em>x</em>: x = 4
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: 7(2(4) - 5) = 21
- Multiply: 7(8 - 5) = 21
- Subtract: 7(3) = 21
- Multiply: 21 = 21
Here we see that 21 does indeed equal 21.
∴ x = 4 is the solution to the equation.
Hey there! :)
To find an equation of a line that passes through (5, 1) and has a slope of 2, we'll need to plug our known variables into the slope-intercept equation.
Slope-intercept equation : y = mx + b ; where m=slope, b=y-intercept
Since we're already given the slope, all we really need to do is find the y-intercept.
We can do this by plugging our known values into the slope-intercept equation.
y = mx + b
Since we're trying to find "b," we need to plug in "y, m, x" into our formula.
(1) = (2)(5) + b
Simplify.
1 = 10 + b
Subtract 10 from both sides.
1 - 10 = b
Simplify.
-9 = b
So, our y-intercept is 9!
Now, we can very simply plug our known values into slope-intercept form.
y = mx + b
y = 2x - 9 → final answer
~Hope I helped!~
