Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
-12(x + 4) + 14x = 60
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Distribute -12: -12x - 48 + 14x = 60
- Combine like terms: 2x - 48 = 60
- Add 48 to both sides: 2x = 108
- Divide 2 on both sides: x = 54
Converse (switch p and q)
If an angle is obtuse, then it measures 128°
This is false (a 127° angle is obtuse, but it does not measure 128°)
_____________________________________________________________
Inverse (negations of p and q)
If an angle does not measure 128°, then it is not obtuse
This is false (a 127° angle does not measure 128°, but it is obtuse)
_____________________________________________________________
Contrapositive (negations of p and q, then switch their places)
If an angle is not obtuse, it does not measure 128°
This is true (any 128° is obtuse; no exceptions)
Answer:
Which fractions
Step-by-step explanation:
If you were to make both x's equivalent, you'd have to multiply the first equation by 2 to get rid of the coefficient, 1/2. However, you'd have to multiply 2 onto -8 as well, therefore the equation would turn into x - 16 = 18. That is not equivalent to x - 8 = 18.
