x= −29/4

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

−7(x+2)=−3(x−5)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−7(x+2)=−3(x−5)

(−7)(x)+(−7)(2)=(−3)(x)+(−3)(−5)(Distribute)

−7x+−14=−3x+15

−7x−14=−3x+15

Step 2: Add 3x to both sides.

−7x−14+3x=−3x+15+3x

−4x−14=15

Step 3: Add 14 to both sides.

−4x−14+14=15+14

−4x=29

Step 4: Divide both sides by -4.

−4x −4

x=29/−4

x= −29/4

Help again lol

For the number before x you would look for the rise over the run. in this case you can see that there is an intersection at (-2,0) and (0,1) you find the difference ox each so you have 2/1 or just 2 you can tell that the line is going up so it is positive. for the addition part look at where the y intercept is in this case it is at positive one. this makes your equation y=2x+1

Can an expert help with this

The formula of an area of a circle:

A_O=\pi r^2

We have

r = 1.8 m

π ≈ 3.14

Substitute:

A_O=\pi\cdot1.8^2=3.24\pi\ m^2\approx3.24\cdot3.14=10.1736\ m^2\approx10.17\ m^2
