A + -5 = -12

A - 5 = -12

A = -7.

This is the solution.

A is (-7).

The opposite equation of the addition is subtraction.

(-12) - (-5)= (-7)

Hope this helps! :)

The following triangles are similar. Find side AB.

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up ratios of corresponding sides. x+2 is to 6 as 2 is to 3:

$\frac{x+2}{6}=\frac{2}{3}$

Now cross multiply to get

3(x + 2) = 12 and

3x + 6 = 12 so

3x = 6 and

x = 2. That means that side AB, x + 2, is 2 + 2 which is 4

Write two solutions for the following equation 2x+3y=24.

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer: (12, 0) and (0, 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

This equation is in standard form. We can sub in a number for x to solve for y and vice versa.

Let's sub in 0 for x.

$2x+3y=24\\2(0)+3y=24\\3y=24\\\frac{3y}{3} =\frac{24}{3} \\y=8$

When x is 0 y is 8 giving us the coordinate (0, 8).

Now lets sub in 0 for y

$2x+3(0)=24\\2x=24\\\frac{2x}{2} =\frac{24}{2} \\x=12$

When y is 0 x is 12 giving us the coordinate (12, 0)
