Answer:
x=-7
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
3(x + -2) = 5x + 8
Reorder the terms:
3(-2 + x) = 5x + 8
(-2 * 3 + x * 3) = 5x + 8
(-6 + 3x) = 5x + 8
Reorder the terms:
-6 + 3x = 8 + 5x
Solving
-6 + 3x = 8 + 5x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-5x' to each side of the equation.
-6 + 3x + -5x = 8 + 5x + -5x
Combine like terms: 3x + -5x = -2x
-6 + -2x = 8 + 5x + -5x
Combine like terms: 5x + -5x = 0
-6 + -2x = 8 + 0
-6 + -2x = 8
Add '6' to each side of the equation.
-6 + 6 + -2x = 8 + 6
Combine like terms: -6 + 6 = 0
0 + -2x = 8 + 6
-2x = 8 + 6
Combine like terms: 8 + 6 = 14
-2x = 14
Divide each side by '-2'.
x = -7
Simplifying
x = -7
One way to make it easier to multiply, pick a number from a multiplication problem. Then, add the amount of times of the other number.
Example:
6 x 8 = ?
8 = Chosen Number
So, add 8, 6 times.
8 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 = ?
? = 48
Which, 6 x 8 does equal 48.
Answer:
(- 396, 264 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the dilatation is centred at the origin, then multiply each of the coordinates of the point by the scale factor, that is
(- 9, 6 ) → ( (- 9 × 44 ), (6 × 44 ) ) = ( - 396, 264 )
