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.

To solve this you need to take the answer from the previous iteration.

Iteration 1: The answer is given
a1 = 300

Iteration 2: Solve using the equation. a(n-1) is the answer from the previous iteration. n = the number of the current iteration. So, a(n-1) = 300 and n = 2

a2 = 300/2 = 150

Iteration 3: a(n-1) = 150 and n = 3
a3 = 150/3 = 50

Iteration 4: a(n-1) = 50 and n = 4
a4 = 50/4 = 12.5

Answer: 12.5

Where the angle bisectors intersect determines the center of the incircle.
Where the side perpendicular bisectors intersect determines the center of the center of the circumcircle. From these definitions, you should be able to determine the points you want.
