Answer:-7/4

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x-2)=6x+2-2(-2x-4)

Open brackets

2x-4=6x+2+4x+8

Collect like terms

-4-2-8=6x+4x-2x

-14=8x

Divide both sides by 8

-14/8=8x/8

-7/4=x

x=-7/4

2. To find the area, all we have to do is plug in these values and simplify!

3. (Solving)

$\frac{a+b}{2}h$
$\frac{4.3+10.9}{2}*5$
$\frac{15.2}{2}*5$
$\frac{76}{2}$
$38$

Therefore, the area is 38 km.

Answer: Zack won. If you compare the decimal equivalents of their scores, -3.666 < -3.625

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Vanessa and Zack are playing a game where the player with the lower score wins.

Score of Vanessa= $-3\frac{5}{8}=-(\frac{29}{8})=-3.625$

Score of Zack = $-3\frac{2}{3}=-(\frac{11}{3})=-3.666$

We can see $-3.666$

⇒ Zack has the lower score .

Hence, Zack won. If you compare the decimal equivalents of their scores, -3.666 < -3.625.
