4x + 20 = 6x + -10
Reorder the terms:
20 + 4x = 6x + -10
Reorder the terms:
20 + 4x = -10 + 6x
Solving
20 + 4x = -10 + 6x
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-6x' to each side of the equation.
20 + 4x + -6x = -10 + 6x + -6x
Combine like terms: 4x + -6x = -2x
20 + -2x = -10 + 6x + -6x
Combine like terms: 6x + -6x = 0
20 + -2x = -10 + 0
20 + -2x = -10
Add '-20' to each side of the equation.
20 + -20 + -2x = -10 + -20
Combine like terms: 20 + -20 = 0
0 + -2x = -10 + -20
-2x = -10 + -20
Combine like terms: -10 + -20 = -30
-2x = -30
Divide each side by '-2'.
x = 15

Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Since you know that the line is 180 degrees in total, and there is a right angle, then you know . . .
180 = 90 + 40 + 6x + 2
Subtract 90 + 40 + 2 on both sides
48 = 6x
Divide by 6 on both sides.
x = 8
You have your answer.

Answer:
11.2 units
Step-by-step explanation:
From (-7, -7) to (-2, 3) is 5 units horizontally and 10 units vertically. Thus we have a right triangle with sides 5 and 10 respectively. The length of the hypotenuse of this triangle is the distance between (-2, 3) & (-7, -7):
d = √(5² + 10²) = √(25 + 100) = √125 = √25√5, or 5√5.
This is approximately 11.2 units
