Steps to solve:

-3(x + 2) = 12

~Distributive Property

(-3 * x) + (-3 * 2) = 12

~Simplify

-3x - 6 = 12

~Add 6 to both sides

-3x - 6 + 6 = 12 + 6

~Simplify

-3x = 18

~Divide -3 to both sides

-3x/-3 = 18/-3

~Simplify

x = -6

Best of Luck!

Answer:

(-2, 3)  

Step-by-step explanation:

A is translated from (5, 1) to A' at (6, -2).

That is, it moves <em>one unit to the right and three units down</em>.

B is also translated to B' one unit to the right and three units down to (-1, 0).

B must be <em>one unit to the left and three units above B'</em>.

Thus, the coordinates of B are (-2, 3).

The diagram below shows the translation of side AB of ∆ABC to its new location at A'B'.

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

y=\frac{160}{x}

Step-by-step explanation:

The table shows how the time it takes a train to travel between two cities depends on its average speed.

function models the time, y, in hours, that it takes the train to travel between the two cities at an average speed of x miles per hour

y represents the time

and x represents the average speed

WE know distance = speed * times

LEts find the distance using the table

distance = 32* 5= 160

40*4= 160

50*3.2 = 160

Time = distance / speed

times is y , distance is 160  and speed is x

y=\frac{160}{x}
