If g(x) = 3(x − 2), find the value of x if g(x) = 6. 12 2.6 8 4plz include explanation : -)

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

g(x) = 3 (x-2)

g(x) =6  

set 6 equal to 3 (x-2)

6 = 3(x-2)

solve for x

distribute

6 = 3x - 3*2

6 = 3x -6

add 6 to each side

6 +6 = 3x -6 +6

12 = 3x

divide by 3on each side

12/3 = 3x/3

4 =x

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
