Hey there! I'm happy to help!
Here is our equation
3x - 4 (2x - 5) = 15
First, we will sue the distributive property to remove the parentheses. The term outside the parentheses is -4, so that is what we multiply the insides by.
3x-8x+20=15
We combine our like terms (our x-values).
-5x+20=15
We subtract 20 from both sides.
-5x=-5
We divide both sides by -5.
x=1
Have a wonderful day and keep on learning! :D
Answer:
(-4.5, 4.25) The first one.
Step-by-step explanation:
Plug in -4.5 in for x and 4.25 for y in BOTH problems. When you plug them in and they both work out for BOTH problems then its the answer.
Answer:
The original Slope is y=-1/3x-2
The perpendicular slope would be y=3x+b
Step-by-step explanation:
Original Slope:
You already have the y-interecpet, (0,-2), and you know two points (0,-2) and (-6,0), so you can find the slope with (y1-y2)/(x1-x2) so in this case, it would be (0-(-2))/(-6-0)= -1/3 and you can find y=1/3x-2.
Perpendicular Slope:
The slope of any perpendicular line would be the reciprocal of the original. So the reciprocal of -1/3 is 3. The b can be any real number because no matter the y-intercept the slope would still be perpendicular
The correct answers is 43.33%
Answer:5
Step-by-step explanation:
2+2=4+1=5
