Answer:

w=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you open parenthesis to get -2w-14 = 2w+2. Next, you add 2w to each side to get -14 = 4w+2. Then, you subtract 2 from each side to get 4w = -16. Lastly, you divide each side by 4 to get w = -4

Answer:

w = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Distribute</u>

-2w - 14 = 2(w + 1)

-2w - 14 = 2w + 2

<u>Step 2:  Add 2w to both sides</u>

-2w - 14 + 2w = 2w + 2 + 2w

-14 = 4w + 2

<u>Step 3:  Subtract 2 from both sides</u>

-14 - 2 = 4w + 2 - 2

-16 = 4w

<u>Step 4:  Divide both sides by 4</u>

-16 / 4 = 4w / 4

<em>-4 = w</em>

<em />

Answer:  w = -4

PQR is a right-angled triangle. PQ = 16 cm. PR = 8 cm. Calculate the length of
vlada-n [284]
SOLUTION:

PQR is a right-angle triangle.

Therefore, to solve this problem, we will use Pythagoras theorem which is only applicable to right-angle triangles.

Pythagoras theorem is as displayed below:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Where c = hypotenuse of right-angle triangle

Where a and b = other two sides of right-angle triangle

Now we will simply substitute the values from the problem into Pythagoras theorem in order to obtain the length of QR.

c = PQ = 16cm

a = PR = 8cm

b = QR = ?

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

( 8 )^2 + b^2 = ( 16 )^2

64 + b^2 = 256

b^2 = 256 - 64

b^2 = 192

b = square root of ( 192 )

b = 13.8564...

b = 13.86 ( to 2 decimal places )

FINAL ANSWER:

Therefore, the length of QR is 13.86 centimetres to 2 decimal places.

Hope this helps! :)
