In order to find the distance between -61.5 and -23.4 on the number line, you just have to subtract either the greater value to lesser value or lesser value to the greater value.  It doesn't matter when you get a negative difference because the distance should be the absolute value of the difference of two points on a number line.
Here's how you should do it.
   (-61.5) - (-23.4) = -61.5 + 23.4 =  l-38.1l = 38.1
or
   (-23.4) - (-61.5) = -23.4 + 61.5 = l38.1l = 38.1

As you can see above, I tried to subtract the two numbers in different order, and the result is still the same. Just make sure to get the absolute value of the answer because the distance should always be in positive form.

Therefore, the distance between -61.5 and -23.4 is 38.1

-7x - 12 = - 7х + 3(-4 - x)
dsp73

Answer:

x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

-7x - 12 = - 7x + 3(-4 - x)

Open up the parentheses

-7x - 12 = - 7x -12-3x

-7x cancels out on both sides

-12 =-12-3x

-12 cancels out on both sides

0=-3x\\x=0

I hope this helps!

Need help ASAP. Please and thanks!:
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

The answer is x=294 (B)

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember, all interior angles of a hexagon add to 720.

So add all the  given numbers first.

92+100+94+140+x= 720

426+x=720

-426 from both sides

x= 294

I know this is a week later since you posted the question, sorry.
