First you need to subtract 6 from both sides of the equation.

6 - 6 - 4x = -38 - 6

-4x = -44           -Now divide both sides by -4.

-4x / -4 = -44 / -4

x = 11

Now check:

6 - 4(11) = -38

6 - 44 = -38

-38 = -38

Hope this helps you!

Isolate the x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS (Parenthesis, Exponents (& roots), Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction)

First, subtract 6 from both sides

-4x + 6 (-6) = -38 (-6)

-4x = -38 - 6

-4x = -44

Next, fully isolate the x by dividing -4 from both sides

(-4x)/-4 = (-44)/-4

x = -44/-4

x = 11

11 is your answer for x.

Wegnerkolmp or someone who can explain this to me
netineya [11]

Answer:

m<CDE=66 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

(1) Extend the segment DC so it intersects with line BA. Call the intersection F.

(2) Consider triangle BCF. In here, we are given m<ABC=24 deg. Since m<BCD = 90 deg, we known that m<BCF = 90 deg. Knowing two angles in the triangle BCF lets us determine the rhird angle m<BFC = 180-90-24 = 66 deg.

(3) Because of the fact that AB || DE and the fact that line DF intersects AB and DE, the angles <BFC and <CDE are congruent. Therefore m<CDE=66 deg.

9(9h + 4b + 9), for h = 7 and b = 3<br><br> Evaluate
irakobra [83]
So, when adding in the 7 and 3 the new equation is:
9{(9x7)+(4x3)+9}

Following pemdas, you have to do parenthesis first. So now the equation is:
9(63+12+9)

Now distribute the 9:

567 + 108 + 81

And finally solve as a normal addition problem:

567 + 108 + 81= 756

So, the answer is 756.


I hope this helps:)

how do i write an equation of a quadratic formula when given the roots and y intercept? is there a formula i can plug the number
klio [65]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  y = -3x^2 +3x +6

Step-by-step explanation:

For roots p and q, the equation can be written as ...

  y = a(x -p)(x -q)

The value of 'a' must be determined so that the product <em>apq</em> is equal to the y-intercept. One could say that the formula is ...

  y = (y-intercept)/(pq)·(x -p)(x -q)

For your given values of p = 2, q = -1, y-intercept = 6, this becomes ...

  y = 6/(2(-1))(x -2)(x +1)

  y = -3(x^2 -x -2) . . . . . simplifying a bit

  y = -3x^2 +3x +6
