Just subtract the distance between the corner and jims house from 23x - 2 and you'll get your answer. I just got the correct answer.
Answer:
a=-36
Step-by-step explanation:
1/6(a+12)=-4
1) Distribute <u>1/6</u> to a and 12:
1/6a+2=-4
2) Subtract 2 from both sides:
1/6a=-6
3) Multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 1/6: (6/1)
a=-36
Let me know if you have any confusion on how I reached the solution :)
Answer:
As a fraction? If so, it would be 4/9.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find this answer, you must know that 8 and 18 can both be divided by 2. Which would be 4 and 9. Therefor, you have your answer: 4/9
Answer: rhombus
Step-by-step explanation:
By inspection, we can tell that there are no right angles, so we can determine it is not a square or a rectangle.
From the options, it is implied that it is a parallelogram, so to determine if it is a rhombus, we can determine if there is a pair of consecutive congruent sides.
By the distance formula,

As AB=BC, there is indeed a pair of consecutive congruent sides, and thus the most specific classification is a <em>rhombus</em>
Answer:
b=7
Step-by-step explanation:
5a(2b – 3a) = 40
Let a=4
5*4(2b-3*4) = 40
20(2b-12) = 40
Divide each side by 20
20/20 (2b-12) = 40/20
2b-12 =2
Add 12 to each side
2b-12+12 = 2+12
2b = 14
Divide by 2
2b/2 = 14/2
b = 7
