Set up the equation and solve: -27 = 8x - 5x (next simplify by subtracting 5x from 8x)) -27 = 3x (next divide both sides of the equation by 3) -27/3 = 3x/3 (next simplify and solve) -9 = x
x = 5
-27 = 3x-9 = x
-5x + 7 = 27Add (5x - 27) to each side ==> -20 = 5xDivide each side by 5 ==> -4 = x
27 + y = 42 - 4y so 5y = 15 making y = 3 and x = 6
5x=2x+27 subtract 2x from both sides get get X on only 1 side of the equation. 5x-2x=2x-2x + 27 leaves you with 3x = 27 divide both sides by 3 3x/3 = 27/3 leaves you with x = 9 answer X=9
27 - 5x = -8Add 5x to each side:27 = -8 + 5xAdd 8 to each side:35 = 5xDivide each side by 5:7 = x
5x + -6 = 27 Add 6 to each side: 5x = 33 Divide both sides by 5: x = 6.6 x = 6.6
42
The slope is -5/3.
X=6 because 27+3=30 and 30 divides by 5 is 6.
How to solve: 5x+2=27 5x=25 (Subtract 2 from each side) x=25/5=5 (Divide each side by 5) So, x=5
