Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
subtract 2 from both sides. then -4x is equal to -16. divide by -4 which gives you 4. Hope this helped!
Answer:
45°
Step-by-step explanation:
The acute angles of a right triangle are complementary. The base angles of an isosceles triangle are congruent. If x is the measure of the base angles, this requires ...
x = 90-x . . . . . the base angle is congruent to the other base angle
2x = 90 . . . . . add x
x = 90/2 = 45 . . . . divide by 2
The measure of a base angle of an isosceles right triangle is 45°.

It can be useful to remember this fact.
Answer:
A, C, D
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember: Exponents are simply repeated multiplication.
The exponent determines how many times to multiply the base number by itself.
Option 'A' and 'C' apply.
Option D applies because:
A could be 2 while B could be 3, so -2a+3b turns into -4+9, which equals 5.
From what I know you can't really solve a a single equation with two-variables so it's just a matter of trial and error.
Just try plugging in a small number like 2 for a just to try it and you get 8b^2=72.
Divide everything by 8 to isolate b and you get that b^2=9.
Square root everything and you'll find that b=3. This is just one possible combination, I'm sure there are many more but this is obviously the one that was intended to be found.
Now that we know that a=2 and b=3 just plug them into the equation.
-2(2)+3(3)=?
-4+9=?
5
Sorry about having to use this ^ symbol, the equation maker is not working.
I am pretty sure the answers are A and C
