Solve the equation: only write the number is the box
2( 5x+2)=54

x = 5

Explanation:

2(5x + 2) = 54
10x + 4 = 54
10x = 54 - 4
10x = 50
x = 50/10
x = 5

Therefore, x = 5

Abit confused about what you mean, but i think you might be referring to slope intercept form: y = mx + bin that case b, or the y intercept is already given.(0,-1)find the slope by using the formulay2 - y1/x2 - x1the final slope will be 4/2, equivalent to 2.now your equation should look like thisy = 4/2x -1sorry if this didn’t you out!
