M<ABC = m<EBD = 36 (vertical angles)
78 - x + 36 + 3x - 10 = 180 (straight angle)
Now solve for x
78 - x + 36 + 3x - 10 = 180
2x + 68 = 180
- 68 -68 (subtract 68 on both sides)
2x = 58
x = 29
Answer:
-2 and -7
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem is about using the Factoring X.
Two numbers will multiply to the number placed at the top. These same two numbers will add to the value placed on the bottom.
Let's look at the factors of 14.
1 • 14 = 14
2 • 7 = 14
Now let's look at their sums.
1 + 14 = 15
2 + 7 = 9
We can see that 2 and 7 multiply to 14 and add to 9.
However, we need them to add to -9.
Note that two negative numbers multiplied will become positive.
-2 • - 7 = 14
Now let's look at their sum.
-2 + (-7)
Simplify the negative.
-2 - 7 = -9
We can see that -2 and -7 multiply to 14 and add to -9.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
Using functions, the input is x, the output is y.
<u>Break down the problem:</u>
The output (y) is (equals) one-fourth (1/4) of the input (x)
y equals 1/4 of x
Answer:
x = -7
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = -2x + 9
f(x) = 23
therefore, f(x) =
-2x + 9 = 23
-2x = 23 - 9
-2x = 14
-x = 14 ÷ 2
-x = 7
x = -7
