Determine the relationship between the independent variable and the dependent variable

x-axis is independent

y-axis is dependent

The value of x can be anything while the value of y depends on x.

Step-by-step explanation:

On a graph called the coordinate plane, there are two axis. The horizontal axis is the x-axis and is known as the independent variable. A great example of an independent variable is time. Time is always represented on the x-axis because time passes by. It does not depend on anything.

The other axis is the y-axis. It is the vertical axis on the graph. It is called the dependent variable because its value depends on x. For example, if you were looking at miles per hour, the number of miles would depend on how many hours you traveled. You have to know the time to find miles. This is a dependent variable.

d, x=8

step-by-step explanation:

simplifying

4x + -5 = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 4x + -2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 4x + -2x = 2x

-5 + 2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-5 + 2x = 11 + 0

-5 + 2x = 11

add '5' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 5 + 2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0

0 + 2x = 11 + 5

2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: 11 + 5 = 16

2x = 16

divide each side by '2'.
