Option A

<u>Answer: </u>

The value of x in the equation 2(x - 3) + 5x = 5(2x + 6) is -12

<u>Solution: </u>

From question given that

2(x - 3) + 5x = 5(2x + 6)

Open the brackets,

2x – 6 + 5x = 10x + 30

Rewrite the above equation,

2x + 5x – 6 = 10x + 30

On simplifying the above equation, we get

7x – 6 = 10x + 30

Now adding 6 on both sides,

7x – 6 + 6 =10x + 30 + 6

7x = 10x + 36

On subtracting 10x on both sides,

7x - 10x = 10x + 36 - 10x

-3x = 36

On dividing -3 on both sides,

x = -12

Hence on simplifying 2(x - 3) + 5x = 5(2x + 6) we get value of x is -12. Hence Option (A) is correct.

The point (5,4) is rotated 180° clockwise
zmey [24]

Answer:  (-5,-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume that you need the new coordinates of the point after the rotation centered at the origin.

For this exercise it is important to remember the definition of "Rotation".

A Rotation is defined as a transformation which a figure is rotated about a fixed point known as "Center of rotation".

The figure before the transformation is called Pre-Image and the figure obtained after the transformation is called "Image".

The 180 degree rotation about the origin Rule states that:

(x,y) → (-x, -y)

Therefore, knowing that the given point (5,4) is rotated 180 degrees clockwise about the origin, you can conclude that its Image is:

(-5,-4)

Say that a and b are the lengths of the legs of a right triangle and c is the length of the hypotenuse. Find b if a = 21 and c =
maria [59]
When the triangle is a right triangle, you can use the Pythagorean theorem. The formula would be

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

If a = 21 and c=29, thus

b^2 = c^2 - a^2
b^2 = 29^2 - 21^2
b^2 = 400
b = square root (400)
b = 20 units. 

Thus, the answer is <span>D) B = 400</span>
