Hey there! :D

2(x-1)>-12

Use the distributive property.

2*x= 2x 2*-1= -2

2x-2>-12

Add two to the other side.

2x>-10

Divide both sides by 2.

x>-5 <== solution

I hope this helps!

What is 3 = 5x - 12?

zepelin [54]

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

3=5x-12

Rearrange the Equation.

5x - 12 = 3

Add 12 to both sides.

5x - 12 + 12 = 3 + 12

Simplify

5x = 15

Divide both sides by 5

5x/5 = 15/5

x = 3

Suppose r(140°, P)(A) = B and (RPD←→∘RPC←→)(A) = B, what is m∠CPD?

NISA [10]

An angle bisector divides an angle into two equal halves.

The measure of angle $\angle CPD$ is 70 degrees

The complete question is an illustrates the concept of angle bisector;

Where:

$\angle RPD = 140^o$ , and line PC bisects $\angle RPD$

Because line PC bisects $\angle RPD$ , then it means that the measure of RPD is twice the measure of CPD:

So, we have:

$\angle RDP = 2 \times \angle CPD$

Substitute $\angle RPD = 140^o$

$140^o = 2 \times \angle CPD$

Divide both sides by 2

$70^o = \angle CPD$

Apply symmetric property of equality:

$\angle CPD = 70^o$

Hence, the measure of angle $\angle CPD$ is 70 degrees
