Answer:
y=−1
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
−4(y−2)=12
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
−4(y−2)=12
(−4)(y)+(−4)(−2)=12(Distribute)
−4y+8=12
Step 2: Subtract 8 from both sides.
−4y+8−8=12−8
−4y=4
Step 3: Divide both sides by -4.
−4y
−4
=
4
−4
y=−1

Answer:
23. x = 4; DE = 44
24. x = 25; DS = 28
Step-by-step explanation:
23. Point S is the midpoint of DE, so ...
DS = SE
3x +10 = 6x -2
12 = 3x . . . . . . . . . add 2-3x
4 = x . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3
Then DS has length ...
DS = 3x +10 = 12 +10 = 22
and DE is twice that length, so ...
DE = 44
__
24. DS is half the length of DE, so is ...
DS = DE/2 = 56/2
DS = 28
Then x can be found from ...
DS = x +3
28 -3 = x = 25 . . . . . substitute value for DS

<em>Comment on problem 24</em>
Sometimes it is easier to work parts of a problem out of sequence. Here, finding DS first makes finding x easier.
Answer:
440 cm ²
Step-by-step explanation:
216 cm² +24 cm²= 440 cm²
X+y+5=0
y=-x-5
If a solution exists y=y so we can say
x^2-9x+10=-x-5 add x+5 to both sides
x^2-8x+15=0 now factor
x^2-3x-5x+15=0
x(x-3)-5(x-3)
(x-5)(x-3) so x=3 and 5, using y=-x-5
y(3)=-8 and y(5)=-10
So the two solutions are:
(3,-8) and (5,-10)
