First subtract 6
|2x - 4| = 2
Now make into two equations
2x - 4 = 2
2x - 4 = -2
Solution: x = 3, x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

12x - 30 = 2x - 5

Step 2: Solve for x

Subtract 2x on both sides: 10x - 30 = -5
Add 30 to both sides: 10x = 25
Divide 10 on both sides: x = 5/2

Find the area please

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the area of a triangle is given by:

$\displaystyle A = \frac{1}{2} bh$

In this case, the base is x and the height is y. Hence:

$\displaystyle A = \frac{1}{2} xy$

We can write the following ratios:

$\displaystyle \sin \alpha = \frac{x}{12} \text{ and } \cos \alpha = \frac{y}{12}$

Solve for x and y:

$\displaystyle x = 12\sin \alpha \text{ and } y = 12\cos \alpha$

Substitute:

$\displaystyle A = \frac{1}{2}\left(12\sin \alpha\right)\left(12\cos \alpha\right)$

And simplify. Hence:

$\displaystyle A = 72\sin \alpha \cos\alpha$

In conclusion, our answer is D.

Determine if the two figures are congruent and explain your answer using transformations.

Maslowich

The coordinate A(-1, 1) reflected over y-axis is (1, 1) is the coordinate of E, hence the two figures are congruent

The given figures are quadrilaterals, in order to determine whether they are similar, we need to check if they are reflections of each other.

For the Quadrilateral ABCD, the coordinate of A is at A(-1, 1) and for the Quadrilateral DEFG, the coordinate of E is at E(1, 1).

Note that if an object is reflected over the y-axis the transformation is (x, y)->(-x, y)

We need to check whether if we reflect the coordinate A over the y-axis we will get coordinate E

Since the coordinate A(-1, 1) reflected over y-axis is (1, 1) is the coordinate of E, hence the two figures are congruent
