2x+5+12=2x+2+14

how would i solve this?

this statement is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

cancel equal terms

add the numbers (5+12) (2+14)

17=16

not true.

No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+5+12=2x+2+14

2x+17=2x+16

-2x       -2x    (Subtract 2x from both sides)

17≠16

Therefore, the answer is no solution

answer: the price of one pound cabbage = $ 0.8

the point (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds cabbage is $ 8

step-by-step explanation:

since, here is a proportional relation between the number of pounds of cabbage (x) and the price in dollars (y).

therefore, we can write,

⇒ y = k x

where k is the constant of proportionality.

now, point (5,4) is in the line.

thus, it will satisfies the above equation of line.

⇒ 4 = 5 k

⇒ k = 0.8

thus, the equation of the line is,

y = 0.8 x

a) for x = 1,

y = 0.8

therefore, the cost of one pound of cabbage is 0.8 dollars.

b) in the below graph (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds of cabbage is 8 dollars.

f(x) = y

f(-3) = -5
