Answer: x = -9/ addition property of equality

Explanation: In this problem, we're given that x - 7 = -16 and we're asked to solve the equation and explain which equality we used.

The first statement we have will be

the given statement which is x - 7 = -16.

Now, we just solve the equation.

Our first and only step will be to add 7 to both sides.

Then, we find that x = -9.

The property we used here was the addition property of equality.

This property tells us that we can add the same quantity,

or equal quantities, to both sides of an equation.

Triangle ABC has coordinates A(-2, -3), B(1, 1), and C(2, -1). If the triangle is translated 4 units up, what are the coordinate
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

The coordinates of point A' will be: A'(-2, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a translation is basically a transformation that occurs when an object is moved from one place to another place.

Translation does not change the size, orientation, or shape of the original object.

Translating a point P(x, y) 4 units up means we need to add to use P'(x, y+4), that is adding 4 units to the y-coordinate of the point P'(x, y).

Now we have to translate the triangle 4 units up. So, use the formula

P(x, y) → P'(x, y + 3)

Thus, the coordinates of point A' will be:

A(-2, -3) → A'(-2, -3+3) → A'(-2, 0)

Therefore, the coordinates of point A' will be: A'(-2, 0)
