9x - 4 = -44
•add 4 to both sides to isolate the variable
9x = -40
•divide both sides by 9 to isolate the variable
x = -40/9 or −4.444...
Answer:
x^2 +2x +1
Step-by-step explanation:
(x+1)^2
=(x+1)(x+1)
= x×x+x×1+1×x+1×1
=x^2+x+x+1
=x^2+2x+1
Answer:
∠N = 31
Step-by-step explanation:
MN = MP
∠N = ∠P = x+3
∠M + ∠N + ∠P = 180
4x+6 + x+3 + x+3 = 6x + 12 = 180
x = 28
∠N = 28 + 3 = 31
Answer:
the corner is not 90 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
To confirm if the corner is 90 degrees, we would use Pythagoras theorem
The Pythagoras theorem : a² + b² = c²
where a = length
b = base
c = hypotenuse
16² + 20² =
256 + 400 =656
find the square root of 656
= 25.6 feet
If the corner was 90 degrees the diagonal should be 25.6 feet and not 29 feet
