Answer:

x = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

- 2(x + 7) = 4

Distribute

-2x -14 = 4

Add 14 to each side

-2x-14+14 = 4+14

-2x = 18

Divide each side by -2

-2x/-2 = 18/-2

x = -9

The two isosceles triangles are similar.

Zina [86]

Answer:79

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a triangle has a total of 180 degrees in the interior, you can subtract 22 from 180 to get 158.Because the triangle is isosceles, the 2 remaining angles have the same measure. All you need to do now is to divide 158 by 2.

You get 59.

What is the equation of the line with a slope of -1/2 that passes through the point (6,-6)?

skelet666 [1.2K]

$You\ can\ just\ plug\ this\ into\ point-slope\ equation: \\ (y-y1)=m(x-x1)\ \ \ \ m\ is\ slope \\ \\ (y-(-6)= \frac{-1}{2}(x-6) \\ \boxed{y+6= \frac{-1}{2}(x-6) } \\ \\ If\ you\ want\ in\ slope-intercept\ form: \\ y+6= \frac{-1}{2}(x-6) \\ y+6= \frac{-1}{2}x+3 \\ \boxed{ y=- \frac{1}{2}x-3 }$
