Given equation :
.
Strategy 1: We can cross mutiply both sides remove fraction form.
On cross multiplication, we get
x * 7 = 3 * 42
7x = 126.
Dividing both sides by 7, we get
<h3>
x = 18.</h3>
Strategy 2: We can find least common denominator(lcd) of both sides and multiplying both sides by that lcd to get rid denominators from both sides.
LCD of 42 and 7 is 42.
Therefore, multiplying both sides by 42, we get

x = 6 * 3
<h3>x = 18.</h3>
What you have written down is correct, x=-3
Answer:
d = 105° , e = 32° , f = 43°
Step-by-step explanation:
d and 105° are vertically opposite angles and are congruent , then
d = 105°
e and 32° are vertically opposite angles and are congruent , then
e = 32°
105° , e and f lie on a straight line and sum to 180° , that is
105° + e + f = 180°
105° + 32° + f = 180°
137° + f = 180° ( subtract 137° from both sides )
f = 43°
f(x)=-3x^2-1
f(-2)= -3(-2)²-1=-3·4-1= - 13
12-(-3)= 12+3=15, so the difference is 15 points
