Answer:
c) x = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equation: 7x - 9 = 28 + 4(x - 1)
<u><em>Steps:</em></u>
1. Distribute 4 through the parentheses:
7x - 9 = 28 + 4(x) + 4(-1)
7x - 9 = 28 + 4x - 4 [simplify]
7x - 9 = 24 + 4x
2. Subtract 4x from both sides:
7x - 4x - 9 = 24 + 4x - 4x
3x - 9 = 24
3. Add 9 to both sides:
3x - 9 + 9 = 24 + 9
3x = 33
4. Divide both sides by 3:
3x ÷ 3 = 33 ÷ 3
x = 11
5. Check your work:
7x - 9 = 28 + 4(x - 1) [substitute 11 for x]
7(11) - 9 = 28 + 4(11 - 1) [simplify]
77 - 9 = 28 + 4(10) [simplify]
68 = 28 + 40 [add]
68 = 68 ✔

Answer: 2a - 7
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Ana: a
Mrs Vargas: 4a - 4
Leo: 2a + 3
Mrs Vargas - Leo
= (4a - 4) - (2a + 3)
= 4a - 4 -2a - 3
= 2a - 7
The length can be found using the Pythagorean Theorem...
c^2=a^2+b^2 and in this case:
d^2=(dx^2)+(dy^2)
d^2=(3-7)^2+(12-9)^2
d^2=-4^2+3^2
d^2=16+9
d^2=25
d=5
So the length of AB=5 units.
(4*7/2)+(15*7)+(7*6/2) = 140
