-3x+12=x-4

move x to the other side

sign changes from +x to -x

-3x-x+12=x-x-4

-3x-x=-4x ( combine like terms)

-4x+12=x-x-4

-4x+12=-4

move +12 to the other side

sign changes from +12 to -12

-4x+12-12=-4-12

-4x=-4-12

-4x=-16

divide both sides by -4 to get +x

-4x/-4=-16/-4

Cross out -4 and -4, divide by 4 . Then becomes -1*-1*x=x

divide by -4 for -16/-4

-16/-4=4

-4/-4=1

4*1=4

Answer:

x=4

What is the value of the function when x = 1?

creativ13 [48]

On the graph, we can see that when x=1, y=0.

But we don't even need to bother opening the attachment
and studying the graph !

In your question, you said that one point on the function is (1, 0) .
That means that when 'x' is 1, 'y' is zero. And there you are !

Find the radius of a circle having area 616cm square.

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf Radius \ of \ circle = 14 \ cm}$

Given:

Area of circle = 616 cm²

To Find:

Radius of circle

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf \implies Area \ of \ circle = \pi r^{2} \\ \\ \sf \implies 616 = \frac{22}{7} \times {r}^{2} \\ \\ \sf \implies 616 \times \frac{7}{22} = {r}^{2} \\ \\ \sf \implies 28 \times \cancel{22} \times \frac{7} { \cancel{22}} = {r}^{2} \\ \\ \sf \implies 28 \times 7 = {r}^{2} \\ \\ \sf \implies 196 = {r}^{2} \\ \\ \sf \implies {r}^{2} = 196 \\ \\ \sf \implies r = \sqrt{196} \\ \\ \sf \implies r = \sqrt{ {14}^{2} } \\ \\ \sf \implies r = 14 \: cm$
