Answer: Both the equations when solved have different answers, the solutions for both the equation are given below. In the the first equation  4 (x-3)=16 , 4 is multiplied with both the terms in the bracket. Whereas, in the second equation 4x- 2 = 16  there is no variable to multiply with the LHS equation

Solution:

4 (x-3)=16

4x - 12 = 16

4x = 16 + 12

4x = 28

x = 7


4x - 3 = 16

4x = 16 + 3

4x = 19

x = 19/4

x = 4.75

No. There are 3 types of triangles.

Scalene: Triangle which no sides are equal, so all angles aren't congruent

Isosceles: A triangle with 2 equals sides, but has 1 not equal sides.

Equilateral: A triangle which all sides are equal

What is the y-coordinate of point W?<br><br> PLS ASAP
sweet [91]
<h3>Answer:  -1.5</h3>

============================================================

Explanation:

Draw a horizontal line from W to the y axis. You should arrive somewhere between -1 and -2. While this isn't exact, it looks like we should arrive right at the middle of -1 and -2; therefore we should get to -1.5

The y coordinate of W is -1.5

Keep in mind this is based on the assumption we reach the halfway point. Unfortunately, W is not on any horizontal grid lines to be able to determine exactly where W is along the y axis.
