Hello!
So the following would be your equation.
3(x+5)-10= 29
Your first step would be to use the Distributive Property based upon PEMDAS (Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction). Since we have Parenthesis, we distribute first.
3(x+5)-10=29
^ ^
——————
So, your new equation would be—
3x+15-10=29
Now, you need to combine like terms—
15-10=29
3x+5=29
——————
Therefore your new equation is—
3x+5=29.
Now you need to move the constants (5,29) to one side of the equal sign. To do this, you would use the Subtraction Property of Equality and rid the 5–
3x+5=29
-5 -5
——————
Your equation is now—
3x=24.
Finally, you need to remove the 3 from x. This means you must use the Division Property of Equality, and rid the 3.
3x=24
— —
3 3
Your solved equation is—
X=8

Hope this helped!

Answer: choice c and choice d

=====================================

explanation

the graph has a slope of 1/3 because each time you move up 1, you go to the right 3. so, slope = rise/run = 1/3. we can cross choice a off the list since we want a slope of 3, rather than 1/3.

the first table shown has a slope of -3. this is because the rise is -6 and the run is 2, so slope = rise/run = -6/2 = -3. note how x increases by 2 each time (run) and y drops by 6 each time (rise). choice b can be eliminated.

the second table has a slope of 3. each time x goes up by 1, the y values increase by 3. slope = rise/run = 3/1 = 3. alternatively you can use the slope formula to prove that the slope is 3 here. use any two rows of values to generate the two points. choice c is one of the answers

the third table also has a slope of 3. let's use the slope formula to prove as such. i'm going to use the first two rows of the table. so i'll use the two points (2,1) and (5,10)

m = slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (10-1)/(5-2)

m = 9/3

m = 3 so we get a slope of 3

choice d is the other answer

The value of x in this system of equations is 1. 3x + y = 9 y = –4x + 10 substitute the value of y in the first equation: combine like terms: apply the subtraction property of equality: apply the division property of equality: 3x + (–4x + 10) = 9 –x + 10 = 9 –x = –1 x = 1 what is the value of y?
