Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the distributive property, multiply:

-2 x 2x = 4x

-2 x 5 = 10

The new equation is now 8 - 7x = -4x - 10

You need x on one side and to do that subtract the smallest number from both sides, which is 8

The new equation is now -7x = -4x - 18

Add 4x to both sides to further get all the x on one sides

The new equation is now -3x = -18

Divide both sides by -3 to simplify it and remove the negative sign from x

The final answer is x = 6

That's it!

The hypotenuse of a right triangle has endpoints A(4, 1) and B(–1, –2).
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

(–1, 1)

(4, –2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

(x,y) ----> the coordinates of point C

Applying the Pythagoras Theorem

(-1-4)^2+(-2-1)^2=(x-4)^2+(y-1)^2+(x+1)^2+(y+2)^2

step 1

Find the possibles values of x

(-1-4)^2=(x-4)^2+(x+1)^2\\\\25=x^{2}-8x+16+x^{2}+2x+1\\\\2x^{2}-6x-8=0

Simplify

x^{2}-3x-4=0

Solve the quadratic equation

x^{2}-3x-4=(x+1)(x-4)

The values of x are

x=-1 and x=4

step 2

Find the possibles values of y

(-2-1)^2=((y-1)^2+(y+2)^2\\\\9=y^{2}-2y+1+y^{2}+4y+4\\\\2y^{2}+2y-4=0

Simplify

y^{2}+y-2=0

Solve the quadratic equation

y^{2}+y-2=(y+2)(y-1)

The values of y are

y=-2, y=1

therefore

The possibles coordinates of point C are

(-1,1),(4,-2)

Easy 10 points and brainliest :)
Llana [10]

Answer:

on the x-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is less than 0, that means it's to the left of the origin, and if y = 0, then that means the point lies on the x-axis.  Hence, (x,y) is on the x-axis.

Cheers.

In triangle ABC, a = 4, b = 7, and c = 10. Find A.<br> 18°<br> 34°<br> 56°<br> 162°
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

  18°

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of cosines tells you ...

  a² = b² + c² -2bc·cos(A)

Solve for cos(A) and fill in the numbers. Note that the value of cos(A) is very close to 1, so the angle will be fairly small. This by itself can steer you to the correct answer.

  cos(A) = (b² +c² -a²)/(2bc) = (49 +100 -16)/(2·7·10) = 133/140

  A = arccos(133/140) ≈ 18.2° ≈ 18°
