Using the order of operations you'll have to apply PEMDAS (Parentheses Exponents Multiplication Division Addition Subtraction) and in that order.

1/2 (x+2) = 2

1. Since there is nothing to do with the parentheses and there are no exponents you will be starting with multiplication.
Multiply 1/2 by (x+1).
1 (x+1)/2 = 2:

x+1/2 = 2

2. Next you'll have to multiply the denominator of 2 by both sides canceling it out on the left.
2 (x+1)/2 = 2(2):

x+1 = 4

3. Lastly, subtract 1 from both sides canceling it out on the left.
x+1 -1 = 4 -1

x = 3.


Check:

1. Fill in the variable x with 3 and solve inside parentheses.
1/2(3+1) = 2:

1/2 (4) = 2

2. Multiply 4 by 1/2.
4(1/2) = 2
4/2 = 2:

2=2

K(1,0), L(4,1), M(1,4), N(-2, 3) 90% counterclockwise rotation
docker41 [41]

Answer:

K (0,1)

L (-1,4)

M (-4,1)

N (-3,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

When you rotate a figure 90 degrees counterclockwise about the origin, the points all change from (x,y) to (-y,x). Therefore the points would go from: (answers on right side)

K (1,0) ---> K (0,1)

L (4,1) ---> L (-1,4)

M (1,4) ---> M (-4,1)

N (-2,3) ---> N (-3,-2)
