Solve for x: 2+3 (x+2x) = -2x(2-4) +1

x = -1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

2+3 (x+2x) = -2x(2-4) +1

Combine like terms

2+3(3x) = -2x (-2) +1

Distribute

2+9x = 4x +1

Subtract 4x from each side

2+9x-4x = 4x+1-4x

2+5x = 1

Subtract 2 from each sdie

5x = 1-2

5x = -1

Divide by 5

5x/5 = -1/5

x = -1/5

22 dimes and 9 nickels

step-by-step explanation:

y = 5x + 17

step-by-step explanation:

a perpendicular line will be the opposite reciprocal slope of the given equation.   the slope given is -1/5 so the opposite reciprocal is 5

find b:

7 = 5 (-2) + b

7 = -10 + b

17 = b

write equation

y = 5x + 17
