4 0

The correct answers are the x = 6 and x = 0.

In order to find this, we can follow the order of operations.

–4|–2x + 6| = –24

Divide by -4

|–2x + 6| = 6

Since it is now equal to a absolute value, we have to solve for the positive and negative versions of the final answer. Let's start with the positive.

-2x + 6 = 6

-2x = 0

x = 0

Now for the negative

-2x - 6 = -6

-2x = -12

x = 6

These would be your two answers.

Answer:

A. (-4, -3)

B. (5, 3)

C. (-1, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, bear with me, its been a while since I have done this so make sure you double check.

A. So, we already know where point A is(1,-3) and we need that to find B

It says we need a reflection which is basically mirroring it across the y-axis(note: if it were across the x-axis then this would turn out much differently.)

Its hard to explain but i will tell you that reflecting point A will give us (-1, -3)

Now we need to translate it 3 units to the left

B. Ok, next we have point C which is a reflection using the x-axis (now you will see how important it is to make sure you are reflecting in the right place.) Over the x-axis, will give us (1, 3).

Now we need to translate to the right... (5, 3)

C. Point D... we need to rotate it. Now, rotating is a little bit more work than reflecting and translating but its not hard.

since we are rotating 180 degrees then we are basically just turning it around halfway from 360...

A is (1, -3) so D would be (-1, 3)

Hope this helps :)
