Hi, I've recently started doing proofs in math, and I've gotten through most of it, but I am still absolutely clueless when it c

omes to these questions; could someone please help and explain to me how this works??
Question 1: What is the reason for #4?

Given: 4x + 1 = 6x - 2, Prove: x = 3/2

(1) 4x + 1 = 6x - 2

(2) 4x + 3 = 6x

(3) 3 = 2x

(4) 3/2 = x ?

(5) x = 3/2

Question 2:

What is the reason for #3?

Given: 3x - 4 = 2(x + 8), Prove: x = 20

(1) 3x - 4 = 2(x + 8)

(2) 3x - 4 = 2x + 16

(3) 3x = 2x + 20 ?

(4) x = 20

PLEASE HELP I AM DESPERATE TO UNDERSTAND!!

Which equation represents the line through (4, 5) and (0, 3)?
morpeh [17]

Answer:

I dont know what options you have but all these are possible answers

y - 5 = 1/2 ( x - 4 )

y - 3 = 1/2 x

y = 1/2 x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the equation you need a slope, so you find the slope of both points by using the slope equstion

y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

and you would get :

\frac{1}{2}

now you plug it into the point slope formula  which is y - y = m ( x - x )

and you choose one of the two sets of points that they provided in the question but you'll get the same answer either way.

Vertical? Supplementary? Right? Complementary?
Reika [66]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

because we know that angle EOD is less the 90 so that means that it is complementary. For AOB it is  the same but we can check by adding 35 plus x plus 90 =180 degrees  so 35+90=125  x=180-125=55 so x=55 and 55 is less then 90  so it is a complementary angle.
