Answer:

x = 6.5

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to apply the distributive property of multiplication:

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

7x - 14 = 3x + 12

7x - 3x = 12 + 14

4x = 26

x = 6.5

Answer: 6.5

Step-by-step explanation:

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

7x-14 = 3x + 12

-3x -3x

4x -14 = 12

+14 +14

4x = 26

4x /4 = 26 /4

X = 6.5

Anit [1.1K]
No, actually the method is not correct. Adiya needed to take x2 and subtract it from 20x. she would then get 6 = 18x. Have in mind also that she needed to divide 18. So 6 = 18x turns into 6=X. That is why is incorrect

Well you have to change the first number in ALL of the () so

(-2,-1) = (2,-1)

(-1,0) = (1,0)

so your answer is d <span>(1, 1), B(2, -1), C(1, 0)</span>
