Multiply the bracket by 5
I used PEMDAS
P= parenthesis
E= exponents
M=multiplication
D= division
A= addition
S= subtraction
7r+2= 5(r-4)
7r+2= 5r-20
Move 5r to the left hand side . Positive 5r changes to negative 5r
7r-5r+2= 5r-5r-20
2r+2=- 20
2r+2-2= -20-2
Move positive 2 to the right hand side. Changes to negative -2
2r+2-2= -20-2
2r= -22
Divide by 2 for 2r and -22
2r/2= -22/2
r= -11
Answer is r= -11
Answer:
x = 20°
Step-by-step explanation:
The angle measures should add up to 180 degrees. So that leaves us with 100 degrees left to find if we take out the 80 given.
3x + 2x simplifies to 5x. 5x must equal 100.
100/5 = 20.
Therefore x = 20.
Answer:
z = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the points are collinear then the slopes between the points are equal.
Calculate the slope m using the slope formula
m = 
with (x₁, y₁ ) = P (2, - 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = Q (3, - 2)
m = 
= 1
Repeat with
(x₁, y₁ ) = Q (3, - 2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = R (8, z )
m = 
= 
, then
= 1 ( multiply both sides by 5 )
z + 2 = 5 ( subtract 2 from both sides )
z = 3
