Celia simplified the expression Negative 4 x (1 minus 3) minus (2 x + 2). She checked her work by letting x = 5 in both expressi

ons. Her work for the original expression is shown below.
Negative 4 x (1 minus 3) minus (2 x + 2) = negative 4 (5) (1 minus 3) minus (2 (5) + 2) = negative 20 (negative 2) minus 12 = 40 minus 12 = 28.


Celia knows that the simplified expression should also equal 28 when x = 5. Which shows Celia’s simpllifed expression?
–6x – 1
–6x + 2
6x + 1
6x – 2

Although x ² and x both have the variable x, you can’t add them together. So x + x + x + x is 4x and we just leave x ² the same. So the simplified expression is x ² + 4x. I hope this helped!!

Answer:

  The line of reflection is at y = x+6.

Step-by-step explanation:

The perpendicular bisector of AA' is a line with slope 1 through the midpoint of AA', which is (-4, 2). In point-slope form, the equation is ...

  y = 1(x +4) +2

  y = x + 6 . . . . . . . line of reflection

if the value of x varies directly as the value of y , and x = 16 when y = 3/4 , what is the value of x when y = 3/8 ?
Olin [163]

Answer:

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

If the value of x varies directly as the value of y we can say they are directly proportional. This implies that when y increases x will increase too, and when y decreases x will also decrease.

If x=16 when y=3/4 we can write their relation as:

x/y = 16/(3/4) = 16*(4/3) = 64/3

So, for every value of y, the ratio x/y must maintain equal to 64/3 because both values are proportional.

Now we can see what happens to x when y varies. If y=3/8:

x/(3/8) = 64/3

Multiply both sides by 3/8 to eliminate the 3/8 in the denominator.

x/(3/8) * (3/8) = (64/3) * (3/8)

See that we have a 3 multiplying and another dividing, we can eliminate them.

x = 64/8

x = 8

So, if y decreases to 3/8 x will decrease to 8. Notice that y is decreasing in a half as 3/8 is the half of 3/4, and x is also decreasing in a half from 16 to 8, what makes sense.
