Answer:
x = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
3 x - 5 x + 2 = 10
Grouping like terms, 3 x - 5 x + 2 = 2 + (3 x - 5 x):
2 + (3 x - 5 x) = 10
3 x - 5 x = -2 x:
-2 x + 2 = 10
Subtract 2 from both sides:
(2 - 2) - 2 x = 10 - 2
2 - 2 = 0:
-2 x = 10 - 2
10 - 2 = 8:
-2 x = 8
Divide both sides of -2 x = 8 by -2:
(-2 x)/(-2) = 8/(-2)
(-2)/(-2) = 1:
x = 8/(-2)
The gcd of 8 and -2 is 2, so 8/(-2) = (2×4)/(2 (-1)) = 2/2×4/(-1) = 4/(-1):
x = 4/(-1)
Multiply numerator and denominator of 4/(-1) by -1:
Answer: x = -4
If vertex angle is 42, and the base angles are congruent, this is an isosceles triangle, they each measure: 180-42/2. They each measure 69 degrees. The length of sides don't matter.
Answer:
there is none
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
a(10 - 13)
Step-by-step explanation:
The only common factor between these numbers is a, as 10 and 13 do not share factors (13 is prime). We can only factor out a.
Answer:
(x−2)(x−4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's factor x2−6x+8
x2−6x+8
The middle number is -6 and the last number is 8.
Factoring means we want something like
(x+_)(x+_)
Which numbers go in the blanks?
We need two numbers that...
Add together to get -6
Multiply together to get 8
Can you think of the two numbers?
Try -2 and -4:
-2+-4 = -6
-2*-4 = 8
Fill in the blanks in
(x+_)(x+_)
with -2 and -4 to get...
(x-2)(x-4)
Hope this helps! Also, if it's no trouble, can I have brainliest? Thanks! :D
