Simplify the equation.

First, distribute the 2 in the left side of the equation.
Resulting in: 2x-6 = (x-1) + 7

Second, remove the parentheses form the right side of the equation (there is nothing to distribute there).
Resulting in: x - 1 + 7

Now simplify the right side of the equation by subtracting the 1 from the 7.
Resulting in: x + 6

Our goal is to isolate the x to the left side, and the numerals to the right side.
With that in mind, add the 6 (from the right side) to both sides. This cancels out the 6 on the right side.
Resulting in: 2x = 12

Lastly, in order to fully isolate the variable (x), we divide both sides by 2.
Resulting in: x = 6

Hope this helps.

Abi and Ali shared £35 in the ratio 1 : 6. Work out how much Ali received.

baherus [9]

Answer:

£30

Step-by-step explanation:

To tackle these 'sharing' ratios problems, first find the total amount parts in the ratio.

1 : 6 = 1 + 6 = 7 parts

Now divide the total amount of parts by the total amount of money shared

35 / 7 = 5

Now multiply the answer by the value that is appropriate.

In this case, they want you to work out how much Ali recieved.

Ali's value is 6

6 × 5 = £30

hope this helps :)

GHF is congruent to KHJ, what can you conclude?

The answer is a. Because because congruent angles are equal. if they are equal and start at the center of a circle this means that they can only travel the same distance before hitting border of circle. this would make their arcs the same

Point M MM is located at ( − 4 , − 6 )

Daniel [21]

The point in rectangular form (x, y) = (-4, -6) means that a point is located 4 units to the left of the origin and 6 units below the origin. A representation is shown below.

<h3>How to located a point in a Cartesian plane</h3>

By Euclidean geometry we know that a plane is generated by two non-co-linear lines. Cartesian planes are generated by two orthogonal lines (axes x, y), whose interception is known as origin. The point in rectangular form (x, y) = (-4, -6) means that a point is located 4 units to the left of the origin and 6 units below the origin.

Finally, we proceed to present the location of the given point with the help of a graphing resource.
