Answer:  " x = 9 "  .
____________________________________
Explanation:
____________________________________
To calculate the mean:
____________________________________
The mean = 

     {the sum of all the values in the number set} ÷ 

     {the number of values in the data set} ;
____________________________________
 To solve for "x" ;
____________________________________
Given that the "mean" is:  "8" ;
____________________________________
            8  =  { 3 + 7 + 9 + 12 + x }  /  5  ;
____________________________________ 
    ↔  { 3 + 7 + 9 + 12 + x }  /  5   =  8  ;
____________________________________
            →  { 3 + 7 + 9 + 12 + x }  = 8 * 5  ;
____________________________________
            →  { 31 + x } = 40  ;
____________________________________
            ↔   x + 31  = 40  ;
____________________________________
       Subtract "31" from EACH SIDE of the equation; to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "x" ;
____________________________________
            →   x + 31 − 31  =  40 − 31  ;

                       →  x = 9  .

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Image = (-3,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Point = (-3,-2)

Transformation = Rx-axis

Required

Determine the image

When rule Rx-axis is applied to a point (x,y),

The new coordinate point is (x,-y)

<em>In other words, the y coordinate is negated</em>

So, when rule Rx-axis is applied to

Point = (-3,-2)

The image of the point is

Image = (-3,-(-2))

Image = (-3,2)
