Write and solve an equation to find the number six times the sum of a number and 15 is -42

Mathematics

Mumz [18]3 years ago

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Sum means to add. Let's call our number n.

n+15

We multiply this whole thing by 6.

6(n+15)

And this is -42.

6(n+15)=-42

We use distributive property to undo the parentheses.

6n+90=-42

We subtract 90 from both sides.

6n=-132

We divide both sides by 6.

n=-22.

Have a wonderful day! :D

Solve for x.<br> -6x = -18
marta [7]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

The goal is to get the x to be on one side of the equation on its own.

-6x = -18

To get rid of the -6, we would have to do the opposite of what it's doing in the equation - in this case, we would divide, as it's the opposite of multiplying.

What we do to one side of the equation, we have to do to the other.

-6x/-6 = x

-18/-6 = 3

x = 3

Hope that makes sense!

ABC is an isosceles triangle in which AC =BC.
aev [14]

Given:

ABC is an isosceles triangle in which AC =BC.

D and E are points on BC and AC such that CE=CD.

To prove:

Triangle ACD and BCE are congruent​.

Solution:

In triangle ACD and BCE,

AC=BC                  (Given)

AC\cong BC

\angle C\cong m\angle C                  (Common angle)

CD=CE                  (Given)

CD\cong CE

In triangles ACD and BCE two corresponding sides and one included angle are congruent. So, the triangles are congruent by SAS congruence postulate.

\Delta ACD\cong \Delta BCE           (SAS congruence postulate)

Hence proved.
