Answer:
x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Well the first step is to apply the distributive property:
4(3x - 1) is equal to (12x - 4). You DISTRIBUTE a '4' to what is inside the parentheses.
And btw, to make it easier, you can make 9 - x so that x is first. For example, (-x + 9). They're both the same thing, just written differently.
Your new equation is 12x - 4 = -x + 9. You want to now solve the equation.
Add the (-x) to both sides. It cancels out on the right side and you add it to 12x on the left side.
[If there's no number in front of a variable, you can always just put 1 in order to make it easier]
12x + 1x = 13x. Your new equation is 13x - 4 = 9. This should look very familiar. You simply add 4 to both sides. 9 + 4 = 13
Finally, 13x = 13. Divide 13 ÷ 13 to get 1.
x = 1
Answer:
Given
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that: △RST ~ △VWX, TU is the altitude of △RST, and XY is the altitude of △VWX.
Comparing △RST and △VWX;
TU ~ XY (given altitudes of the triangles)
<TUS = <XYW (all right angles are congruent)
<UTS ≅ <YXW (angle property of similar triangles)
Thus;
ΔTUS ≅ ΔXYW (congruent property of similar triangles)
<UTS + <TUS + < UST = <YXW + <XTW + <XWY =
(sum of angles in a triangle)
Therefore by Angle-Angle-Side (AAS), △RST ~ △VWX
So that:
=
(corresponding side length proportion)
Answer:
x^2+5x-14
Step-by-step explanation:
you multiply both equations so that you get:
x^2-2x+7x-14
and then you simplify it to:
x^2+5x-14
