Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-2 < -3/4. Another way in which to do this would be to use the LCD:

-8/4 < -3/4.

Even though 8 has a larger magnitude than does 3, -8/4 is smaller than -3/4. On the number line, -8/4 (or -2) is to the left of -3/4.

(2x-4) / 5 = x + 4. Mult. both sides by 5 to eliminate the fraction on the left side:

2x-4=5x + 20

Combining like terms, 3x = -24, and so x = -8

Solve for 2. Write the smaller solution first, and the larger solution s

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

4(x^2 +10 +21)

4(x+3)(x+7) = 0

Smaller

4(x+7) = 0

4x +28 = 0

4x = -28

x = -28/4

x = -7

Larger

4(x+3) = 0

4x + 12 = 0

4x =-12

x = -12 / 4

x = -3

Help me I beg u! The pre-image coordinates of a triangle are J(-6,9), K(-6,4), and L(-3,4). The coordinates of the transformed t

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

A. Translation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Preimage

$J = (-6,9)$

$K = (-6,4)$

$L = (-3,4)$

Image

$J' = (2,9)$

$K' = (2,4)$

$L' = (5,4)$

Required

Which transformation occurred

The transformation that occurs is translation because each of the preimage were translated or shifter right by 8 units.

The rule applied here is:

$(x,y)=>(x+8,y)$

So, we have:

$J = (-6,9)$ $==> (-6+8,9) = (2,9)$

$K = (-6,4)$ $==> (-6+8,4) = (2,4)$

$L = (-3,4)$ $==> (-3+8,4) = (5,4)$

<em>Hence, the transformation is (a) Translation</em>

Who is correct jo or alex

REY [17]

Neither Alex nor Jo are correct, because surface area is a 2-dimensional quantity, so it would be given in just square units, not linear nor cubic.

So the answer is D
