Answer:
Place both coordinates for the first question on a graph and draw a line. The answer is the coordinate that falls on that line.
Step-by-step explanation:
-5+-12 is -17
For lack of a better metaphor, it's like digging a pit deeper than it already is.
Answer:
x = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
in order to solve for the value of x in the expression 6 ( x − 2 ) = 8 ( x − 9 )
we will first of all open the brackets and then evaluate for the value of x by combining the like terms.
from 6 ( x − 2 ) = 8 ( x − 9 )
6x -12 = 8x -72
combine the like terms
6x - 12 + 72 = 8x
-12 + 72 = 8x -6x
60 = 2x
divide both sides by the coefficient of x which is 2
60/2 = 2x/2
30 = x
x = 30
therefore the value of x in the expression 6 ( x − 2 ) = 8 ( x − 9 ) is equals to 30

Explanation:
Use the Pythagorean theorem (
a
2
+
b
2
=
c
2
)
Lets label the right triangle such that:
a
=
12
b
=
16
c
=
x
Thus,
12
2
+
16
2
=
x

=

So our missing side,
c
is
20
We can now say that the sides of our triangle are
12

16
,

I've included a link that lists a couple of Pythagorean triples (a couple because they are infinitely many).

Hope it helpful
Let x the age of John
Amy's age = x + 9
from question, we get,
John's age + Amy's age = 23
x+(x+9)= 23
=> x + x + 9 = 23
=> 2x = 23 - 9
=> x = 14/2
=> x = 7
