Solve for x: −2(x + 3) = −2(x + 1) − 4. (1 point)

Mathematics

Answer:

Hey there!

Let's solve our equation below.

-2(x+3)= -2(x+1)-4

Let's distribute the parentheses.

-2x-6=-2x-2-4

We combine like terms.

-2x-6=-2x-6

We add 6 to both sides.

-2x=-2x

We divide both sides by -2

x=x

If, when solving an equation, you get one number or variable that equals itself, there are infinitely many solutions.

We can plug anything into this equation and it will always equal to same things, since x is just equal to whatever x value you want.

Therefore, there are infinitely many solutions.

I hope this helps!

If y varies directly with x when y=1/3 and x = 12, find x if y is 4.
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

x = 144

Step-by-step explanation:

y α x

we introduce a constant 'k' when changing from α to =.

i.e y = kx

y = ⅓ when x = 12

Meaning, ⅓ = k * 12

⅓ = 12k

k = ⅓ ÷ 12

k = 1/36

If y = 4, x = ?

using the equation y = kx

4 = (1/36)x

x = 4 ÷ (1/36)

x = 4 * 36

x = 144

What is the value of x in the circle on the right
german

To solve this we need to use Pythagorean theorem

{x}^{2}  +  {14}^{2}  = (9 + x) ^{2}  \\  {x}^{2}  + 196 = 81 + 18x +  {x}^{2}  \\ 18x = 115 \\ x = 6.3(8) \simeq6.4

Answer: x≈6.4
