1. simplify -7x-3x+2 to -10x+2
 -10x+2=-8x-8
2. add 10x to both sides
2=-8x-8+10x
3. simplify -8x-8+10x to 2x-8
2=2x-8
4. add 8 to both sides
2+8=2x
5. simplify 2+8 to 10
10=2x
6. divide both sides by 2
10/2=x
7. simplify 10/2 to 5
5=x
8. switch sides
x=5

1. simplify x-4x to -3x
-8-x=-3x
2. add x to both sides
-8=-3x+x
3. simplify -3x+x to -2x
-8=-2x
4. divide both sides by -2
-8/-2=x
5. two negatives make a positive
8/2=x
6. simplify 8/2 to 4
4=x
7. switch sides
x=4
hope this helps

Please I need someone to help my assignment​
Nadusha1986 [10]
(x-4)² + (x-2)² = x²

(x² - 8x + 16 ) + (x² - 4x + 4) = x

2x² -12x + 20 = x

2x²-12x + 20 - x = 0

2x² - 13x + 20 = 0

(2x-5) (x-4) = 0

2x-5 = 0

2x = 5

x = ⁵/₂


x-4 = 0

x = 4



so x₁ = ⁵/₂ , and x₂ = 4

3(d-8) - 5 = 9(d+2) + 1
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

d = - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

3(d-8) - 5 = 9(d+2) + 1

3d-24 - 5 = 9d+18 + 1

3d - 29 = 9d + 19

9d - 3d = -29 - 19

6d = - 48

6d / 6 = -48/6

d = -8
