Answer:

x = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Add 1/4x to both sides</u>

-\frac{1}{4}x - 12 = x + 3

-12 - \frac{1}{4}x + \frac{1}{4}x = x + 3 + \frac{1}{4}x

-12 = \frac{5}{4}x + 3

<u>Step 2:  Subtract 3 from both sides</u>

-12 - 3 = \frac{5}{4}x + 3 - 3

-15 = \frac{5}{4}x

<u>Step 3:  Multiply both sides by 4/5</u>

-15*\frac{4}{5}=\frac{5}{4}x * \frac{4}{5}

-12 = x

Answer:  x = -12

Answer: x = -18.75

-1/4x - 12 = x + 3

Add 12x from both sides to get
-1/4x = x + 15

Then minus x from both sides
-5/4x = 15

The divide by -5/4 to get
x = -18.75

The <span>Pythagorean theorem</span> is what is most useful here, and a calculator; for the following...
Imagine forming a triangle by creating that last leg between the starting position and the ending position; the length of that side will be our missing variable "y".

600<span>² + 800</span>²= y<span>²

The sum of the two (600</span><span>² & 800</span>²) must then be square rooted to find the length

y² = 1,000,000 and the square root of y<span>²= 1,000 (YOUR ANSWER) "y"</span>
