Answer:

the answer is x=2

Step-by-step explanation

First of all put all x in one side of equation and number to the other side

Bare in mind that when we move from one side of equation to another positive integers become negative and negative integers become positive

5x-6=2x

5x-2x=6 here we moved 2x to other side of equation thus, it become -2x, and -6 was moved to other side of equation thus it become 6

3x=6 we subtracted from 5x-2x and found 3x since we can subtract the variables having the same element i this case that is x

x=6/3 we divided 6/3 in order to find the value of x. please note that 3x means 3*x

x=2

$(-1,-2) \: \: \: \: \: and \: \: \: \: \: (3,6) \\ Answer: A$

Step-by-step explanation:

$y = 2x \\ y = {x}^{2} - 3 \\ \\ 2x = {x}^{2} - 3 \\ {x}^{2} - 2x - 3 = 0 \\ (x + 1)(x - 3) = 0 \\ x + 1 = 0 \: \: \: \: \: or \: \: \: \: \: x - 3 = 0 \\ x = - 1 \: \: \: \: \: or \: \: \: \: \: x = 3$

When x = -1

Substitute x = -1 into y = 2x

y = 2(-1)

y = -2

( -1, -2)

When x = 3

Substitute x = 3 into y = 2x

y = 2(3)

y = 6

( 3, 6)

If the squares are 4 inches then the height of the sides will be 4 inches, so you multiply the area of the base times 4!

The area of a triangular block is 16 squre inches. If the base of the triangle is twice the height, how long are the base and th

klemol [59]

The area of a triangle can be calculated using the formula

1/2 (base) (height)

Let's substitute our known values, letting x represent the value of the height of the triangle.

16 = 1/2* x* 2x

Let's Simplify!

16 = x^2

Finally, lets take the square root of both sides, to get rid of the exponent on the right side of the equation.

x= positive OR negative 4.

However, because x is equal to the height, we know that it can't be negative, so we know that it is positive 4.

The height of the triangle = 4 inches
The base of the triangle = 2h = 8 inches
