Answer:
Part 1) 
The value of x is 
Part 2) 
Step-by-step explanation:
Part 1) Simplify the given equation
we have

In the left side, remove the parenthesis and apply the distributive property
Remember that

so


Combine like terms left side

Adds 7x both sides

subtract 15 both sides

Divide by 7 both sides

Part 2) Solve for x.

Apply distributive property both sides

Group terms that contain the same variable

Combine like terms

Answer:
2.0 x 
Step-by-step explanation:
1. length = 3.2 x
m
width = 1.6 x
m
Area of a rectangle = length x width
= (3.2 x
) x (1.6 x
)
= 5.12 x

2. length = 1.28 x
m
width = 8 x
m
Area of a rectangle = length x width
= (1.28 x
) x (8 x
)
= 1.024 x

= 
= 20
= 2.0 x 
Thus,
The area of rectangle 2 is 2.0 x
times greater than the area of rectangle 1.
Hello!
To graph this, you will want to create two points based off of the equation. You plug an x-value into the equation, and you put the y-value outcome with it as an ordered pair. You do this twice, giving you two points to connect.
For example, let's plug in an x-value 1, giving us (1,y)
y= 1-3 (We remove the absolute value)
y=-2 (Subtract)
This gives us one point, (1,-2)
Let's try using -2 as another point.
y= 2-3 (Remove absolute value)
y= -1 (Subtract)
This gives us the point (-2,-1)
To graph, you would draw a straight line through the points (1,-2) and (-2,-1). Note you could do this with any x-value and you would get the same line.
I hope this helps!
Y/4-3 if you needed to make it into an equation that would be it
