What is the value of x in 2.5(6x-4)=10+(1.5+0.5)

x = 22/15

Step-by-step explanation:

2.5(6x-4)=10+(1.5+0.5)

Combine like terms

2.5(6x-4)=10+(2)

2.5(6x-4)=12

Divide each side by 2.5

6x-4 = 4.8

Add 4 to each side

6x = 8.8

Divide by 6

6x/6 = 8.8/6

x = 88/60

x = 22/15

b. y = 4x - 2

step-by-step explanation:

to find a parallel equation to an equation, make sure both equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

y = 4x + 1

4 = slope

1 = y-intercept

y = 4x - 2

4 = slope

-2 = y-intercept

they both have the same slope but different y-intercepts, so, b. is the correct answer.

and to check your work, you can graph both equations. : )
