Answer: -8x -12

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply -4 by 2x getting -8x

Then Multiply -4 by 3 getting 12

Since you can't subtract 12 from -8x this is the simplest way

Answer:

-8x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the distributive property of multiplication which states that a(b + c) = a * b + a * c. Therefore:

-4(2x - 3)

= -4 * 2x - 4 * (-3)

= -8x + 12

If BTS=GHD BS=25 TS=14 BT=31 GD=4x-11 S=56 B=21 and H=(7y+5) find the values of x and y

77julia77 [94]

Given:

Consider the completer question is "If ∆BTS≅∆GHD, BS=25, TS=14, BT=31, GD=4x-11, m∠S=56, m∠B=21 and m∠H=(7y+5), find the values of x and y.

To find:

The values of x and y.

Solution:

We have,

$\Delta BTS\cong \Delta GHD$ (Given)

$BS=GD$ (CPCTC)

$25=4x-11$

$25+11=4x$

$36=4x$

Divide both sides by 4.

$9=x$

In ∆BTS,

$\angle B+\angle T+\angle S=180^\circ$ (Angle sum property)

$21^\circ+\angle T+56^\circ=180^\circ$

$77^\circ+\angle T=180^\circ$

$\angle T=180^\circ-77^\circ$

$\angle T=103^\circ$

Now,

$\angle T=\angle H$ (CPCTC)

$103=7y+5$

$103-5=7y$

$98=7y$

Divide both sides by 7.

$14=y$

Therefore, the value of x is 9 and value of y is 14.
