Answer:a=-7

Step-by-step explanation:The given equation is 3(a-7)=6a

Using distributive rule we have:

3a-21=6a

21 is subtracted to 3a .We always perform the opposite operation both sides.

Opposite of subtraction is addition

Adding 21 both sides

3a=6a+21

Subtracting 6a both sides:

3a-6a=21

-3a=21

Dividing both sides by -3 we have

a=-7.

Answer:

(x+2)^2+1

Step-by-step explanation:

G is shifted 2 to the left and one up. 2 to the left is represented by changing the input by adding 2 to it (as the original is 2 more than the edited), and adding 1 to the end of it adds 1, so our answer is (x+2)^2+1

Factor the polynomial by grouping : x^3+5x^2-6x-30

andrew-mc [135]

The idea is to pair up the terms, factor each sub-group, and then pull out the overall GCF to fully factor.

x^3+5x^2-6x-30

(x^3+5x^2)+(-6x-30)

x^2(x+5)+(-6x-30)

x^2(x+5)-6(x+5)

(x^2-6)(x+5)

-------------

Answer: (x^2-6)(x+5)

A square on a coordinate plane has the points A(0, 0), B(0, 5), C(5, 5) and D(5, 0). If Square ABCD is rotated about the origin

Georgia [21]

Answer:

B. 5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation are reflection, dilation, rotation or translation.

If a point X(x,y) is rotated about the origin 180 degrees clockwise the new point is at X'(-x, -y).

If the square with vertices at A(0, 0), B(0, 5), C(5, 5) and D(5, 0) is rotated about the origin 180 degrees clockwise the new points are at A'(0, 0), B'(0, -5), C'(-5, -5), D'(-5, 0)

A square has four equal sides. The distance between two points $X(x_1,y_1)\ and\ Y(x_2,y_2)$ is:
