<h3>Given :</h3>

how to evaluate 4(x+2−5x) when x=2

The value after evaluating

<h3>Solution :</h3>

We are provided that x equals 2 so have to put 2 instead of x to the desired result

4(x + 2 - 5x)

Putting the value of x we get

4(2 + 2 - 5 × 2)

According to BODMAS multiplication comes first then addition

So 5 × 2 will be solved after that we will simplify 2 added with 2

4(2 + 2 - 10)

4(4 - 10)

4(-6)

- 24

<u>Henceforth, the required answer is -24</u>

What is the reason for each strip on the solution of the equation?

Pani-rosa [81]

Step 1: Given

Step 2: Distributive Property

Step 3: Addition Property of Equality

Step 4: Division Property of Equality

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to match the reason with the correct step in the equation.

Equation:

Given:

$2x = -4(x-3)$

Applying Distributive property a(b+c)=ab+ac

$2x=-4x+12$

Now, Applying addition property of equality:

Adding +4x on both sides

$2x+4x=-4x+12+4x\\6x=12$

Now, Applying Division property of Equality:

Divide both sides by 6:

$\frac{6x}{6}=\frac{12}{6}\\x=2$

So, Answer will be:

Step 1: Given

Step 2: Distributive Property

Step 3: Addition Property of Equality

Step 4: Division Property of Equality

2. Sled kites rely on wind pressure to retain the shape of the sail. Each consists of a single square and two triangular pieces.

Slav-nsk [51]

Show that the angles A and B are congruent

Answer:

$\angle A =\angle B =90^\circ$

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram of the sled kite is attached below.

The central part of the kite is square.

We know by the property of a square that all its angles are congruent and equal to 90 degrees.

Therefore:

$\angle A =\angle B =90^\circ$

Angles A and B are congruent.
