8x-12=36

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

<span><span><span>8x</span>−12</span>=36

</span>Step 1: Add 12 to both sides.

<span><span><span><span>8x</span>−12</span>+12</span>=<span>36+12

</span></span><span><span>8x</span>=48

</span>Step 2: Divide both sides by 8.

<span><span><span>8x/</span>8</span>=<span>48/8

</span></span><span>x=6

</span>Answer: x=6

Simplify the expression (8x^3y^2/4a^2b^4)^-2
icang [17]
Simplify the following:
((8 x^3 y^2 a^2 b^4)/4)^(-2)
8/4 = (4×2)/4 = 2:
(2 x^3 y^2 a^2 b^4)^(-2)
Multiply each exponent in 2 x^3 y^2 a^2 b^4 by -2:
(x^(-2×3) y^(-2×2) a^(-2×2) b^(-2×4))/(2^2)
-2×3 = -6:
(x^(-6) y^(-2×2) a^(-2×2) b^(-2×4))/2^2
-2×2 = -4:
(y^(-4) a^(-2×2) b^(-2×4))/(2^2 x^6)
-2×2 = -4:
(a^(-4) b^(-2×4))/(2^2 x^6 y^4)
-2×4 = -8:
b^(-8)/(2^2 x^6 y^4 a^4)
2^2 = 4:
Answer: 1/(4 x^6 y^4 a^4 b^8) thus the answer is A

You need to prove that <A = <E
since c is the midpoint of line AE then AC = EC
i dont remember the name of the theroem that states that when a triangle has two sides and an angle in common that it is congruent i think it called SAS congruence therom. use that to prove that the <| s are congruent then use CPCTC to prove that <A = <E. then prove that they are || by usint the int angle therom.

Answer this by 4:20 EST and I will mark brainliest
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (6, a ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (9, - 4 )

m = \frac{-4-a}{9-6} = \frac{-4-a}{3}

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

2x - 3y = 6 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

- 3y = - 2x + 6 ( divide through by - 3 )

y = \frac{2}{3} x - 2 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = \frac{2}{3}

Parallel lines have equal slopes , then

\frac{-4-a}{3} = \frac{2}{3} , so

- 4 - a = 2 ( add 4 to both sides )

-a = 6 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

a = - 6 → A
