Answer:

addition property of equality

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation 4(x-5) = -12

Expand

4x - 20 = -12

Add 20 to both sides (addition property of equality)

4x-20+20 = -12+20

4x = 8

x = 8/4

x = 2

Hence the value of x is 2

The justification for step 2 is addition property of equality

Ray Of Light [21]
Cindy is 72 inches long. Imagine it like a right triangle. Her shadow is the base, she is the side, and the distance between her head and the end of the shadow is the diagonal line connecting the two. Use the Pythagorean theorem to find how tall cindy is.

a²+b²=c²        a=21, the length of the shadow
                       b= ? cindy's height
                     c= 75, the distance from her head to the edge of the shadow
21²+ b²=75²
441 +b² = 5625
-441         -441

b² = 5184
√b² =√5184
b= 72
