Answer:
x = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.
First, subtract 12 from both sides:
3x + 12 (-12) = -12 (-12)
3x = -12 - 12
3x = -24
Next, divide 3 from both sides:
(3x)/3 = (-24)/3
x = -24/3
x = -8
x = -8 is your answer.

What is the story problem put the story promblem
Use the Pythagorean therm , you know the a^2+b^2=c^2
If the line segment point is D(-5, 10) and E(a,b) and the midpoint of the segment is F(13, -2) that mean
DE= 2*DF
You can directly find the distance of AC
Xdf= Xf-Xd= 13 - (-5)= 18
Ydf= Yf - Yd= -2 - 10= -12
Then add the distance of AB( which is 2*AC) to point D
Xe= a = Xd + 2*Xdf
a= -5 +2*18= 31
Ye= b = Yd + 2Yf
b= 10+ 2*-12= -14
<span>absolute difference between a and b:
|b-a|= </span>|-14-31|= 45
Answer:
The answer is A 41.9 feet.
