  • Division Property of Equality
  • Addition Property of Equality
  • Subtract Property of Equality

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

5x = 2

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

  1. Divide 5 on both sides:                    x = 2/5

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                     5(2/5) = 2
  2. Multiply:                                2 = 2

Here we see that 2 does indeed equal 2.

∴ x = 2/5 is the solution to the equation.

ZX bisects ∠WZY. If the measure of ∠YXZ is (6m – 12)°, what is the value of m?
krok68 [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B.  17

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, ZX bisects ∠WZY. If the measure of ∠YXZ is (6m – 12)°

<u>To find the value of m</u>

From the figure we can see that, triangle WYZ is an isosceles  triangle.

ZW = ZY

Then <YXZ = <WXZ = 90°

It is given ∠YXZ  = (6m – 12)°

(6m – 12)° =  90°

6m = 90 + 12  = 102

m = 102/6 = 17

Therefore the value of m = 17

The correct answer is option B.  17

Answer: 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay so it asks in all, which means morning distance + afternoon distance

We got the afternoon distance so now we have to find the morning one

it says the afternoon distance (6), is 25% less than the morning distance.

Which means the afternoon distance is 0.75 of the morning distance.

so 0.75x = 6, x = 6/0.75 = 8

Then you add 8 to 6 to get 14
