-2(x-4)=-16 SOLVE FOR X!!

Mathematics
1 answer:
Andrej [43]2 years ago

Answer:

x = 12

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
  • Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>

-2(x - 4) = -16

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Distribute -2:                    -2x + 8 = -16
  2. Isolate <em>x</em> term:                  -2x = -24
  3. Isolate <em>x</em>:                           x = 12

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute:                    -2(12 - 4) = -16
  2. Subtract:                       -2(8) = -16
  3. Multiply:                        -16 = -16

Here we see that -16 does indeed equal -16.

∴ x = 12 is a solution of the equation.

Work out the size of AED. Work out x
Monica [59]

Answer:

a). m∠AED = 70°

b). x = 10°

Step-by-step explanation:

a). Quadrilateral ABDE is a cyclic quadrilateral.

Therefore, by the theorem of cyclic quadrilateral,

Sum of either pair of opposite angle is 180°

m(∠AED) + m(∠ABD) = 180°

m(∠AED) = 180° - 110°

m(∠AED) = 70°

Since, ∠AED ≅ ∠EAD

Therefore, m∠AED = m∠EAD = 70°

b). By triangle sum theorem in ΔABD,

m∠ABD + m∠BDA + m∠DAB = 180°

110° + 40° + m∠DAB = 180°

m∠DAB = 180° - 150°

m∠DAB = 30°

m∠BAE = m∠EAD + m∠BAD

              = 70° + 30° = 100°

By angle sum theorem in ΔACE,

m∠EAC + m∠AEC + m∠ACE = 180°

100° + 70° + x° = 180°

x = 180° - 170°

x = 10°

Which expression is equivalent to -18a^-2b^5/-12a^-4b^-6?
Novosadov [1.4K]
First divide the  coefficients:-
-18 / -12  = 3/2

a^-2 / a^-4  = a^2

b^-5 / b^-6  =  b


so the expression simplifies to  3a^2b / 2
