3/7x + 4 = -1/2
subtract 4 from both sides
3/7x= -1/2 - 4
3/7x= -4 1/2
divide both sides by 3/7
x= -4 1/2 ÷ 3/7
convert -4 1/2 to improper fraction
x= (-4*1+1)/2 ÷ 3/7
x= -9/2 ÷ 3/7
multiply by reciprocal of 3/7
x= -9/2 * 7/3
multiply numerators & denominators
x= (-9*7)/(2*3)
x= -63/6
x= -10 3/6
simplify 3/6 by 3
x= -10 1/2
CHECK:
3/7x + 4 = -1/2
3/7(-63/6) + 4= -1/2
(3*-63)/(7*6) + 4= -1/2
-189/42 + 4= -1/2
-4 1/2 + 4= -1/2
-1/2= -1/2
ANSWER: x= -63/6 or -10 1/2
Hope this helps! :)
This is an enlarged dilation
Answer:
(2,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
first take x-y=0 and multiply it by -5 you will then get this
-5x+5y=0
5x-2y=6
add those together
3y=6
divide by 3
y=2
now plug 2 in for y
x-2=0
add 2 to both sides
x=2
