The solution of the equation which is as described in the task content when expressed in its simplest form is; -5/13.

<h3>What is the solution of the equation as described in the task content?</h3>

It follows from the task content that the solution to the equation is to be determined and expressed in its simplest form.

Given;

-1/2 -1/2(4/5x+1) = -2 -3x

By distributing the coefficients: we have;

-1/2 - 2/5x - 1/2 = -2 -3x

Hence, by collecting like terms; we have;

-1/2 - 1/2 + 2 = -3x + (2/5)x

1 = -13x/5

Therefore; by cross-multiplication; we have;

5 = -13x

Divide both sides by; -13.

x = -5/13.

Ultimately, the solution of the equation which is as described in the task content when expressed in its simplest form is; -5/13.

1. The coordinates of the vertices of parallelogram RMBS are R(–4, 5), M(1, 4), B(2, –1), and S(–3, 0). Using the diagonals, pro
Whitepunk [10]
First, plot the points. Point R would be somewhere in the second Quadrant, point M would be in the first quadrant 1, point B would be in the fourth quadrant, and point S would be on the negative y-axis. A property of rhombi is that their diagonals are perpendicular. One would need to calculate the slopes of the diagonals and determine whether or not they are perpendicular. Lines are perpendicular if and only if their slopes are opposite reciprocals. Example: 2 and -0.5
Formulas needed:
Slope formula:
\frac{ y_{2}- y_{1}  }{ x_{2} - x_{1} }

The figure would look kinda like this:
      R
                  M
  
          S
                       B
 Diagonals are segment RB and segment SM
So, your slope equations would look like this:
 \frac{-1-5}{2-(-4)}
and
\frac{4-(-3)}{1-0}
Slope of RB= -1
Slope of SM=7
Not a rhombus, slopes aren't perpendicular. But this figure may very well be a parallelogram
