If 3x+7=x-1, then does x = -4?

Hey there!!

To check whether x= -4, let's solve the equation.

Given:

3x+7 = x-1

Subtracting 2x on both sides:

2x + 7 = -1

Subtracting 7 on both sides:

2x = -1-7

2x = -8

Dividing 2 on both sides:

x = -8/2

x = -4

<u><em>Yes, x is -4. </em></u>

<u><em>Hope it helps!</em></u>

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

You multiply 3 by -4 to get -12, then add 7 to make the left side of the equation -5. On the right side, all you have to do is do -4 minus 1, which is -5. That being said, yes x=-4

Quadrilateral ABCD ​ is inscribed in this circle.
Alecsey [184]
The sum of all interior angles in a polygon is

180(n-2), where n = sides, well, this is a QUADrilateral, so it has 4 sides, so the total is 360°.

now, let's find what angle C is first,

\bf \stackrel{A}{(2x-40)}+\stackrel{B}{(116)}+C+\stackrel{D}{(x)}=360\implies C+3x+76=360&#10;\\\\\\&#10;C+3x=284\implies C=284-3x

now, recall the "inscribed quadrilateral conjecture", where opposite angles are "supplementary angles", thus

\bf \stackrel{\measuredangle A}{(2x-40)}+\stackrel{\measuredangle C}{(284-3x)}=180\implies -x+244=180&#10;\\\\\\&#10;64=x\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;\measuredangle A=2(64)-40

Answer:

  \square\quad{y=\dfrac{1}{2}x+4}\\\\\square\quad{\dfrac{y-5}{x-2}=\dfrac{1}{2}}

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line is the same everywhere, so an equation can be written making use of that fact.

  \dfrac{y-y_1}{x-x_1}=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\\dfrac{y-5}{x-2}=\dfrac{7-5}{6-2}=\dfrac{2}{4}\\\\\boxed{\dfrac{y-5}{x-2}=\dfrac{1}{2}}

Cross-multiplying gives ...

  2(y -5) = x -2

  2y -10 = x -2  . . . eliminate parentheses

  2y = x +8 . . . . . . . add 10; next, divide by 2

  \boxed{y=\dfrac{1}{2}x+4}

__

These equations match choices B and D.
