Answer:

x=-8

Steps:

Simplify-

−3(−7−x)= x+2/2

Simplify-

−3(−7−x)= 1+ x/2

Multiply both sides by 2-

−6(−7−x)=2+x

Expand-

42+6x=2+x

Subtract 2 from both sides-

42+6x−2=x

Simplify-

6x+40=x

Subtract 6x from both sides-

40=x−6x

Simplify-

40=−5x

Divide-

-40/5=x

Simplify-

-8=x

Switch sides-

x=-8

I believe this is correct, if not let me know and I will fix it.

Geometry! Please help!
Natalija [7]
So the equation for a trapezoid is A= \frac{b_1+b_2}{2} *h , with the b variable being the 2 bases, h variable for height, and the a variable for area. Firstly, we will need to plug in the appropriate numbers into the equation, and it'll look like this:

136= \frac{12+14}{2} *h

Next, we will need to combine 12 and 14, then divide the sum by 2. Your equation should look like this: 136=13*h

Lastly, just divide each side by 13, and your answer should be 10.46=h

Given 4x − 8y = 8:
siniylev [52]
4x - 8y = 8
8y = 4x - 8
y = 1/2 x - 1

slope: 1/2
y-intercept:(0, -1)

Line perpendicular- negative reciprocal slope

y-(-1) = -2 (x-0) Hahaha I don't know what is the point slope form though hahaha not sure with this.
