Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x - 30 = 14 - 3x
4x = 44
x = 11
Let's call the unknown number x
Now let's decrease it by 30, that is x-30
Now let's write out "14 decreased by three times the number", that is 14 - 3x
The problem says these are the same, that is x - 30 = 14 - 3x
We now want to isolate, or solve for, x
Move the x to one side of the equation by adding 3x to both sides
3x + x -30 = 14 - 3x + 3x
4x -30 = 14
Now move the 30 to the right hand side by adding 30 to both sides
4x - 30 + 30 = 14 + 30
4x = 44
Now all we have to do to get x is divide both sides by 4
4x/4 = 44/4
x = 11
Answer:
- 61x - 67
Step-by-step explanation:
The n th term of an arithmetic sequence is
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
d = - 9x - 2 - (- 5x + 3)
= - 9x - 2 + 5x - 3
= - 4x - 5 and a₁ = - 5x + 3, thus
= - 5x + 3 + 14(- 4x - 5) = - 5x + 3 - 56x - 70 = - 61x - 67
keeping in mind that parallel lines have exactly the same slope, let's check for the slope of the equation above

so we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is 1/2 and passes through (-4 , 1)

Answer:
Segment BF = 16 is true.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since, DE is parallel to BC, so DE will divide AB and AC proportionally.
Hence,

⇒
{Since, given that AE = 12, EC = 18 and AD = 6}
⇒ BD = 9.
Again, since, EF is parallel to AB, so EF will divide BC and AC proportionally.
Hence, 
⇒
{Since, given that AE = 12, EC = 18 and FC= 24}
⇒ BF = 16.
Therefore, segment BF = 16 is true. (Answer)
