0.4 (2x + 1/2) = 3 [0.2x+(-2)] - 4
0.4 (2x + 1/2) = 3(0.2x-2) - 4

Then, you have to use the distributive property.
0.8x + 0.2 = 0.6x - 6 - 4
0.8x + 0.2 = 0.6x - 10
0.8x - 0.6x + 0.2 = -10
0.2x + 0.2 = -10
0.2x = -0.2 - 10
0.2x = -10.2
x = -10.2/0.2
x = -51

Does that make sense?

We just distribute the numbers out inside the parenthesis:

0.4(2x + \frac{1}{2}) = 3[0.2x + (-2)] - 4
(0.4 × 2x) + (0.4 ×\frac{1}{2}) = (3 × 0.2x) + (3 × -2) - 4
0.8x + 0.2 = 0.6x - 6 - 4

Join the like terms:

0.8x + 0.2 = 0.6x - 10

0.8x - 0.6x = -10 - 0.2
0.2x = -10.2

Divide by 0.2 to isolate x

\frac{0.2x}{0.2} = -\frac{10.2}{0.2}
0.2 and 0.2 cancels out

x = -51

Quadrilateral EFGH is on a coordinate plane. Segment FG is on the line 3x − y = −2, and segment EH is on the 3x − y = −6. Which
liberstina [14]

Answer:

the slope of both lines are the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following segment of the Quadrilateral EFGH on a coordinate  Segment FG is on the line 3x − y = −2,

segment EH is on the 3x − y = −6.

To determine their relationship, we can find the slope of the lines

For line FG: 3x - y = -2

Rewrite in standard form y = mx+c

-y = -3x - 2

Multiply through by-1

y = 3x + 2

Compare

mx = 3x

m = 3

The slope of the line segment FG is 3

For line EH: 3x - y = -6

Rewrite in standard form y = mx+c

-y = -3x - 6

Multiply through by-1

y = 3x + 6

Compare

mx = 3x

m = 3

The slope of the line segment EH is 3

Hence the statement that proves their relationship is that the slope of both lines are the same.
