Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation 6x - 4= -4(X-5) Remove the brackets

Solution

6x - 4 = -4x + 20 Add 4x to both sides

6x + 4x -4 = -4x+4x + 20 Combine

10x - 4 = 20 Add 4 to both sides

10x - 4 + 4 = 20 + 4 Combine

10x = 24 Divide by 10

10x/10 = 24/10

x = 2.4

Answer: x =<u> 2.4</u>

Answer:

no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

lets isolate the absolute value first:

|x|-8+8=-2-8

|x|=-10

since absolute value cannot be less than -10, there is no solution.

Find the area of the trapezoid.

lozanna [386]

Check the picture below.

$\textit{area of a trapezoid}\\\\ A=\cfrac{h(a+b)}{2}~~ \begin{cases} h=height\\ a,b=\stackrel{parallel}{sides}\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ h=8\\ a=14\\ b=8 \end{cases}\implies \begin{array}{llll} A=\cfrac{8(14+8)}{2}\implies A=4(22) \\\\\\ A=88 \end{array}$
