Answer:
x= 7
Step-by-step explanation:
1st step: Multiply the factor (outside number) with the numbers and variable(s) in the box. This results in 2(x-3) = 2x-6
2nd Step: continue the rest of the equation since there are no more brackets left so 2x-6-12=-4
3rd Step: send -12 to the other side of the equation (side changes sign changes) so it will become 2x-6=-4+12 (You are actually supposed to make the variable alone on one side of the equation so that you would be able to calculate its value)
4th step: 2x-6=8 ---> send -6 to the other side as well which will then result in 2x=14
5th step: since 2 is being multiplied by x, when you send it to the other side (to make x alone) you will divide 14 by 2 ( sign of 2 changes from multiplication to division)
Final Step: x=7
Answer:
7 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
As with many geometry problems, there are several ways you can work this.
Label the lower left and lower right vertices of the rectangle points W and E, respectively. You can subtract the areas of triangles WSR and EQR from the area of trapezoid WSQE to find the area of triangle QRS.
The applicable formulas are ...
area of a trapezoid: A = (1/2)(b1 +b2)h
area of a triangle: A = (1/2)bh
So, our areas are ...
AQRS = AWSQE - AWSR - AEQR
= (1/2)(WS +EQ)WE -(1/2)(WS)(WR) -(1/2)(EQ)(ER)
Factoring out 1/2, we have ...
= (1/2)((2+5)·4 -2·2 -5·2)
= (1/2)(28 -4 -10) = 7 . . . . square units
Step-by-step explanation:

p(x) = -2

When you are given a point (x1,y1) and slope m the equation is
y-y1=m(x-x1)
given
slope=7
(x,y)
(3,22)
x1=3
y1=22
y-22=7(x-3) is the equation or
y=7x+1
