Answer: x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

-4(-6x + 3) = 12

Reorder the terms:

-4(3 + -6x) = 12

(3 * -4 + -6x * -4) = 12

(-12 + 24x) = 12

Solving

-12 + 24x = 12

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '12' to each side of the equation.

-12 + 12 + 24x = 12 + 12

Combine like terms: -12 + 12 = 0

0 + 24x = 12 + 12

24x = 12 + 12

Combine like terms: 12 + 12 = 24

24x = 24

Divide each side by '24'.

x = 1

Simplifying

x = 1

3. Write the equation of a line that passes through the point (24, 25) and is
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

y=-1/3x + 33

Step-by-step explanation:

You can start by writing this in point slope form and converting to slope intercept later. Since the slope of the perpendicular line is y=3x-30, this line must have a slope of -1/3. It's point slope form is therefore:

y-25=-1/3(x-24)

Now, you can convert to slope intercept by isolating y:

y=-1/3(x-24)+25

y=-1/3x+8+25

y=-1/3x+33

Hope this helps!

Kevin is 4 times as old as Daniel and is also 6 years older than Daniel
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

Part a) Daniel's age is 2 years

Part b) Kevin's age is 8 years

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The question is </em></u>

Part a) How old is Daniel?

Part b) How old is Kevin?

Let

x ----> Kevin's age

y ----> Daniel's age

we know that

x=4y-----> equation A

x=y+6 ----> equation B

Equate equation A and equation B

4y=y+6

solve for y

4y-y=6

3y=6

y=2

therefore

Daniel's age is 2 years

<em>Find the value of x</em>

substitute the value of y in any of the two equations

x=4(2)=8\ years

x=2+6=8\ years

therefore

Kevin's age is 8 years

L || m
Alona [7]

Answer:

c. m∠1 + m∠6 = m∠4 + m∠6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The lines l and m are parallel lines.

The parallel lines cut two transverse lines. Here we can use the properties of transverse and find the incorrect statements.

a.  m∠1 + m∠2 = m∠3 + m∠4

Here m∠1 and m∠2 are supplementary angles add upto 180 degrees.

m∠3 and  m∠4 are supplementary angles add upto 180 degrees.

Therefore, the statement is true.

b. m∠1 + m∠5 = m∠3 + m∠4

m∠1 + m∠5 = 180 same side of the adjacent angles.

m∠3 + m∠4 = 180, supplementary angles add upto 180 degrees.

Therefore, the statement is true.

Now let's check c.

m∠1 + m∠6 = m∠4 + m∠6

We can cancel out m∠6, we get

m∠1 = m∠4 which  is not true

Now let's check d.

m∠3 + m∠4 = m∠7 + m∠4

We can cancel out m∠4, we get

m∠3 = m∠7, alternative interior angles are equal.

It is true.

Therefore, answer is c. m∠1 + m∠6 = m∠4 + m∠6
