Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

1.5(x + 4) - 3 = 4.5(x - 2)

Distribute

1.5x + 6 -3 = 4.5x - 9

Combine like terms

1.5x +3 = 4.5x -9

Subtract 1.5x from each side

1.5x -1.5x +3 = 4.5x -1.5x-9

3 = 3x-9

Add 9 to each side

3+9 = 3x-9+9

12 =3x

Divide each side by 3

12/3 = 3x/3

4=x

What is the distance between the points (-12, 11) and (-18, 17), to the nearest tenth? *

Basile [38]

Answer:

8.5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points is given by

$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^{2}+(y_2-y_1)^{2}}$

Taking points (-12, 11) and (-18, 17) as the first and second points respectively then

$d=\sqrt{(-18--12)^{2}+(17-11)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt {36+36}$

d=8.48528137423857 units

Rounded off to nearest tenths

d=8.5 units

PLEASEEEE HELPPPP -1+(-5) =

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

-1+(-5)

You are moving down the numberline, then subtracting again because of the negative sign. -(1+5) is how I like to think of it.

So, 1+5=6, and you add the negative sign. -1+(-5)=-6.
