Emily is solving the equation 2(x+9)=4(x+7)+2 where did she make an error

Hello!

2(x + 9) = 4(x + 7) + 2

Distribute the 2

2x + 18 = 4(x + 7) + 2

Distribute the 4

2x + 18 = 4x + 28 + 2

Combine like terms

2x + 18 = 4x + 30

Subtract 18 from both sides

2x = 4x + 12

Subtract 4x from both sides

-2x = 12

Divide both sides by -2

x = -6

Where she did something different than me is her mistake

Hope this helps!

35 Points!!
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

- Equal midpoints of AC and BC.

- The product of the slopes of the diagonals AC and DB is -1.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Plot the given points, as you can see in the graph attached.

2. Calculate the midpoint of AC and DB:

M_{AC}=(\frac{-5+(-1)}{2},\frac{-1+5}{2})=(-3,2)\\M_{DB}=(\frac{-9+3}{2},\frac{6+(-2)}{2})=(-3,2)

Therefore, the midpoint of AC and DB are equal.

3. Calculte the slope of the diagonals AC and DB:

m_{AC}=\frac{5-(-1)}{-1-(-5)}=\frac{3}{2}\\m_{DB}=\frac{-2-6)}{3-(-9)}=-\frac{2}{3}

4. Multiply the slopes of the diagonals:

(\frac{3}{2})(-\frac{2}{3})=-1 (AC and DB are perpendicular)

Someone please help me I don’t know this :(

Answer:

  x = 10; WX = 5; HJ = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The hash marks indicate that points W and X are midpoints of their respective segments. That makes WX a midline of the triangle. The midline is always half the length of the base (HJ). We can use this fact to write an equation relating the lengths.

  HJ = 2·WX

  x = 2(x -5) . . . .substitute the given expressions

  x = 2x -10 . . . . eliminate parentheses

  10 = x . . . . . . . add 10-x to both sides

This value of x tells you that ...

  HJ = x = 10

  WX = x -5 = 5
