Mathematics

kykrilka [37]3 years ago

Solution:

I'm not sure if there is law for it or not, but you can replace each x to -2 if both sides are equal then the equation is true.

7x - 4 = 6x + 5\\7(-2) - 4 = 6(-2) + 5\\-14-4=-12+5\\-18\neq -7

A. is incorrect.

4x + 3 = 8x - 5\\4(-2) + 3 = 8(-2) - 5\\-8+3=-16-5\\-5\neq -21

B. is incorrect.

6x + 4 = 3x + 10\\6(-2) + 4 = 3(-2) + 10\\-12+4=-6+10\\-8\neq 4

C. is incorrect.

-5x - 3 = -7(x +1)\\-5(-2) - 3 = -7((-2) +1)\\10-3 =-7(-1)\\7=7

D. is correct.

Answer:

D. -5x-3=-7(x+1)

Create triangle A’B’C by reflecting triangle ABC over the y-axis on the coordinate plane. What are the new coordinates of the ve
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When talking about reflection, we usually mean reflecting across a line, or axis. Reflecting a shape means looking at the mirror image on the other side of the axis. Consider the point (x,y), if you reflect this point across the y-axis you should multiply the x-coordinate by -1, so you get:

(x,y)\rightarrow(-x,y)

For triangle ABC we have:

A(-4,2) \\ \\ B(-1,3) \\ \\ C(-1,-4)

Therefore, the reflecting points are:

A'(4,2) \\ \\ B(1,3) \\ \\ C(1,-4)

Both the original triangle and the reflected one are shown below.

xeze [42]

Answer: $169

Step-by-step explanation: The expression 25 + 18 x 8 represents the amount she will pay if she participates for 8 months.

Multiply 18 x 8 to find the cost for 8 months. $18 x 8 = $144.

Now add $25 to $144, which equals $169
