A=-10 all you do to find a is simply add 2 to both sides of the equal sign
blondinia [14]3 years ago

Answer:

a= -10

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this you would need to isolate a, or make a stand alone on its side of the equation

a-2=-12    Original equation

a-2+2 = -12+2     Isolating the variable(adding the 2 will cancel the -2 on the left side of the equation)

a= -12+2             Simplification

a= -10                 The answer!!!

I hope this helps!!!

A triangle has two sides of length 1 and 2. What compound inequality describes the possible lengths for the third side, x?Write
klemol [59]

Step-by-step explanation:

since in a triangle each side must be shorter than the sum of the other 2 sides (otherwise the end points cannot connect, and there is no triangle), the necessary inequality condition must be

side < 1 + 2 = 3

so,

side < 3

for a lower limit let's go through the cases

1 < 2 + side (is always true)

2 < 1 + side

1 < side (side must be larger than 1)

and again

side < 1 + 2 = 3

side < 3

so the full restriction for the third side is

1 < side < 3

I don't understand linear relationships. Can someone explain how it works
Vesna [10]
Linear relationships can be expressed in a graphical format where the variable and the constant are connected via a straight line or in a mathematical format where the independent variable is multiplied by the slope coefficient, added by a constant, which determines the dependent variable.
