Answer:

x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

First Expand the equation

3x+3 = 2x-2

Subtract 2x from both sides

x+3=-2

subtract 3 from both sides

x = -5

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

4 * 2y + 4 * 1

4(2y + 1)

Distributive property

Step-by-step explanation:

8y + 4

We can factor out a 4 out of both as both are divisible by 4

8y / 4 = 2y

4 / 4 = 1

So 8y + 4 is the same as saying 4 * 2y + 4 * 1

This can be written as 4(2y + 1) which is written using the distributive property

Micky is trying to solve the following problem but, he missed the lesson. In complete sentences, describe how you woukd solve th
frez [133]
We must solve for x.  Let's simplify this equation by dividing both sides by 6:

|2x-14|=7, which is the same as 2|x-7|=7.

First, assume that x-7 is already positive, so that we don't need the absolute value operator.  Then x-7=7/2.  Adding 7 to both sides results in x = 21/2.

Next, find the other solution:

Assume that x-7 is negative.  Then |x-7|=-(x-7).  Then -(x-7) = 7,

and -x + 7 = 7.  Thus, x = 0.

The solution set is {0, 21/2}.

If sin theta = 2/3 and tan theta &lt;0 what is the value of cos theta?
Mrac [35]

Answer:

d) \cos(\theta)=-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

If   \sin(\theta)=\frac{2}{3} and \tan(\theta)\:, then

\theta is in quadrant 2.

Recall that;

\sin^2(\theta)+\cos^2(\theta)=1

We substitute the given sine ratio to obtain;

(\frac{2}{3})^2+\cos^2(\theta)=1

\frac{4}{9}+\cos^2(\theta)=1

\cos^2(\theta)=1-\frac{4}{9}

\cos^2(\theta)=\frac{5}{9}

\cos(\theta)=\pm \sqrt{\frac{5}{9}}

\cos(\theta)=\pm \frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}

We are in the second quadrant, therefore

\cos(\theta)=-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}
