Answer:

Additive identity is a number, which when added to any number, gives the sum as the number itself. It means that additive identity is “0” as adding 0 to any number, gives the sum as the number itself. For any set of numbers, that is, all integers, rational numbers, complex numbers, the additive identity is 0.

Distance between points (7,6) (-3,-1)

GaryK [48]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(7,6) (-3,-1)

(x1,y1) (x2,y2)

$Distance=\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}}\\\\=\sqrt{(-3-7)^{2}+(-1-6)^{2}}\\\\=\sqrt{(-10)^{2}+(-7)^{2}}\\\\=\sqrt{100+49}=\sqrt{149}\\\\=12.21$

Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define equation

a + 6a - 14 = 3a + 6a

Step 2: Solve for a

Combine like terms: 7a - 14 = 9a
Subtract 7a on both sides: -14 = 2a
Divide 2 on both sides: -7 = a
Rewrite: a = -7

Step 3: Check

Plug in a into the original equation to verify it's a solution.

Substitute in a: -7 + 6(-7) - 14 = 3(-7) + 6(-7)
Multiply: -7 - 42 - 14 = -21 - 42
Subtract: -49 - 14 = -63
Subtract: -63 = -63

Here we see that -63 is equal to -63.

∴ a = -7 is a solution of the equation.

Step 4: Define equation

-12 - 4x = 8x + 4(1 - 7x)

Step 5: Solve for x

Distribute 4: -12 - 4x = 8x + 4 - 28x
Combine like terms: -12 - 4x = -20x + 4
Add 20x on both sides: -12 + 16x = 4
Add 12 on both sides: 16x = 16
Divide 16 on both sides: x = 1

Step 6: Check

Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.

Substitute in x: -12 - 4(1) = 8(1) + 4(1 - 7(1))
Multiply: -12 - 4 = 8 + 4(1 - 7)
Subtract: -16 = 8 + 4(-6)
Multiply: -16 = 8 - 24
Subtract: -16 = -16

Here we see that -16 does indeed equal -16.

∴ x = 1 is a solution of the equation.

12 – 2x= -2(y – x) -2x = -2(y – x) – 12 x= (y - x) + 6

Vilka [71]

Answer:

x=o and y= -6

Step-by-step explanation:

12-2x = - 2(y-x)

or,12-2x = -2y + 2x

or, 12 = - 2y + 4x

or, 12/2= 2x - y

or, 2x - y = 6

• 2x -6= y.....eqn_1

-2x=-2y+2x -12

or,4x +2y= -12

or,4x + 2(2x-6)= -12

or, 4x+4x-12=-12

or, 8x= 0

• x= o

putting the value of x in eqn...3

o=(y-0)+6

or, o= y + 6

•y = -6
