The vertices of a right triangle are (–6, 4), (0, 0), and (x, 0). Find the value of x.
Please, do not post more than 1 or 2 questions at a time. Out of courtesy I will address one of your six questions here:
<span>2x + 4 = 3(x – 2) + 1
You are to solve this for x.
1) perform the multiplication: </span><span>2x + 4 = 3x - 6 + 1
2) combine like terms: 4+6-1 = x
3) solve for x: x = 11
4) check: Is 2(11) + 4 = 3(11-2) + 1 true?
Is 22+4 = 33-6 true? NO. Try again, looking for the mistake:
</span><span>2x + 4 = 3(x – 2) + 1 => 2x + 4 = 3x - 6 + 1
4 = x - 5
9 = x
Check: Is 2(9) + 4 = 3(9-2) + 1 true? Is 18+4 = 22 true? YES.
The solution to #1 is x = 9 (answer).
Submit your other questions separately, please.
