Mathematics
1 answer:
Andrej [43]3 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.

Quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram with diagonals that intersect at point E. If AD=4w-5 DE=4 BE=x/2 BC=7w-17 solve for w.
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

B. w = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know, in a parallelogram length of opposite sides are equal.

so, AD = BC

⇒ 4w - 5 = 7w - 17

⇒ 12 = 3w

⇒ w = 4

PLS HELP: How do you solve x^2-ax-6a^2=0 by completing the square?
Anarel [89]

Answer:

(-3a+-2x)(2a+-1x)=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

x2 + -1ax + -6a2 = 0

Reorder the terms:

-1ax + -6a2 + x2 = 0

Solving

-1ax + -6a2 + x2 = 0

Solving for variable 'a'.

Factor a trinomial.

(-2a + -1x)(3a + -1x) = 0
