What is the value of x in the equation 3-2x--15x?

6
2
2
6

Consider the given equation is and one of the 6 in the options is -6.

Given:

The equation is

To find:

The value of x.

Solution:

We have,

Subtracting 3 from both sides, we get

Divide both sides by -2.

Therefore, the value of x is -6.

c. y = 1/4 x + 5

step-by-step explanation:

first, put the equation of the line on the graph into slope-intercept form

(y = mx + b):   y = -4x + 8

second, a perpendicular line has to have "an opposite/reciprocal slope" to the original slope. so, find the "m" value in your original equation (it's -4, right? )

original slope: m = -4   perpendicular slope: change the sign to its opposite and find the reciprocal ("flip" the number)

new slope is now positive (b/c the original slope was negative 4), and it's 1/4 (not the original slope of 4 or 4/1)
