Answer:

x = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

3 - 2(x - 1) = 2 + 4x

3 - 2x + 2 = 2 + 4x

-2x + 5 = 2 + 4x

-2x - 4x = 2 - 5

-6x = -3

x = -3/-6

x = 1/2

You would multiply the negative two by x then the negative to by negative one then you would get 3-2x+2=2+4x then you would ad 2 x to 4x and get 6x the. Subtract 3-2 and you would get 1 the. You would subtract the 2 from the 1 and get -1 and you would get -1=6x so you would divide 6x and 1 and you would get x=-1/6 ( hope this helps)

You are graphing Square ABCDABCDA, B, C, D in the coordinate plane. The following are three of the vertices of the square: A(4,

Answer:

D(4,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given three of the vertices of the square: A(4, -7), B(8, -7),C(8, -3)

Let the coordinate of the fourth vertex be D(x,y).

We know that diagonals of a square are perpendicular bisector. So, the midpoint of both diagonals is the same.

The diagonals are BD and AC

Midpoint of BD = Midpoint of AC

$\left(\dfrac{8+x}{2},\dfrac{-7+y}{2}\right) =\left(\dfrac{4+8}{2},\dfrac{-7+(-3)}{2}\right)\\ \left(\dfrac{8+x}{2},\dfrac{y-7}{2}\right) =\left(\dfrac{12}{2},\dfrac{-10}{2}\right)\\ \left(\dfrac{8+x}{2},\dfrac{y-7}{2}\right) =\left(6,-5\right)\\$Therefore$:\\\dfrac{8+x}{2}=6\\8+x=12\\x=12-8\\x=4\\$Similarly$\\\dfrac{y-7}{2}=-5\\y-7=-5*2\\y-7=-10\\y=-10+7=-3$
