Answer:

\boxed{ \bold{  \huge{\boxed{ \sf{x = 2}}}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\sf{5x - 4 =  - 3x + 12}

Move 3x to left hand side and change it's sign

⇒\sf{5x + 3x  - 4 = 12}

Move 4 to right hand side and change it's sign

⇒\sf{5x + 3x = 12 + 4}

Collect like terms

⇒\sf{8x = 12 + 4}

Add the numbers

⇒\sf{8x = 16}

Divide both sides of the equation by 8

⇒\sf{ \frac{8x}{8}  =  \frac{16}{8} }

Calculate

⇒\sf{x = 2}

Hope I helped!

Best regards!!

love history [14]

Answer:

A’ (6,-2)

B’ (1,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to give the coordinates after a counterclockwise rotation of 90 degrees

Given a point with coordinates (x,y)

A counterclockwise rotation at 90 degrees to the origin will yield the coordinates (-y,x)

So A (-2,-6) will be A’ (6,-2) while B (3,-1) will be B’ (1,3)
