Hello there!
Yes, your solution is correct! A way to check it is replacing the value you found for x into x in the equation.
3(2-x) = 7 - 4x ⇒ 3(2-1) = 7 - 4(1)
And now solve 3(2-1) = 7 - 4(1).
3(1) = 7 - 4(1)
3 = 7 - 4
3 = 3
Since it is a true statement that 3 is equal to 3, it means your solution of x = 1 is correct. Good job! :)

Answer:
Q2: slope = -½
Q3: slope = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
If the equation of the line is in the form y = mx+b, then m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept (the point where the line crosses the x-axis).
y = -½x, so the slope of the line is -½
y = x+15, so the slope of the line is 1
Eq. of given line is x = -2 》x + 2 = 0
P=2l+2w
W=7+3l
So substitute into the original equation
P=2l + 2(7+3l)
78=2l +14 + 6l
-14 -14
—————-
64=8l
8=length
W=7+3l
= 7+3(8)
=7+24
=31
Check your work
Perimeter=8+8+31+31
=78
Hope this helps
