Note: I just noticed that you only have one negative sign. If you mean to put -9, change the sign to positive. If not, leave the answer.
Note the equal sign. what you do to one side, you do to the other. Isolate the x. First, multiply 3 to both sides
-x/3(3) = 9(3)
-x = 9(3)
-x = 27
Next, to isolate the x, divide -1 from both sides
-x/-1 = 27/-1
x = 27/-1
x = -27
-27 is your answer for x.
hope this helps
Answer:
Answer What
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case, what you must do is add the area of each of the triangles to find the total area of the polygon.
We have then:
A = 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2
A = 16
Equivalently, as the area of each triangle is the same, then:
A = 2 * (8)
A = 16
Answer:
the area of the polygon is:
16
Option 3
The answer is 36 square inches.
