Answer:

x=-9

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−6(x+1)−18=26+4

(−6)(x)+(−6)(1)+−18=26+4(Distribute)

−6x+−6+−18=26+4

(−6x)+(−6+−18)=(26+4)(Combine Like Terms)

−6x+−24=30

−6x−24=30

Step 2: Add 24 to both sides.

−6x−24+24=30+24

−6x=54

Step 3: Divide both sides by -6.

−6x

−6

x=−9

Answer:

x=−9

Which expression is equivalent to the following complex fraction?

jeka57 [31]

$\dfrac{\frac{1}{x}-\frac{1}{y}}{\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y}}=\dfrac{\frac{y}{xy}-\frac{x}{xy}}{\frac{y}{xy}+\frac{x}{xy}}=\dfrac{\frac{y-x}{xy}}{\frac{y+x}{xy}}=\dfrac{(y-x)xy}{(y+x)xy}=\dfrac{y-x}{y+x}$

a line segment has endpoints A (-8,6) and B (4,6). What is the distance in units between point A and B?

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

The distance between point A and point B is 12 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

d = √(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²

d = √(-8 - 4)² + (6 - 6)²

d = √144 + 0

d = 12
