Answer:
-4x + 12 = 20 is incorrect. she added 12 to 20 instead of subtracting 12 from both sides.
Step-by-step explanation:
It should have been, write problem
-4(x - 3) = 20
Use distributive property.
-4x + 12 = 20
subtract 12 from each side
-4x =8
divide each side by -4
x = -2
If e is between them, then the distances DE and EF add to the total, DF. So the answer is just 27 + 34 which is 61, A
Answer:
2.7 The second question I am unsure of because side EF is clearly labeled 7, if they meant to ask for the value of x in the second question then your answer is 12

Answer:
The distance from the base of the ladder to the base of the house is 10ft
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we can gather that the ladder makes a right angle shape with the wall of the house.
The length of this ladder which represents the hypotenuse of the right angled triangle is 26ft while the height of the house to the roof is 24ft
To calculate the distance between the base of the ladder and the base of the house, we shall be employing the use of Pythagoras’ theorem which states that the square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the square of the 2 other sides
We have established that the hypotenuse is the length of the ladder which is 26ft
Let the distance we want to calculate be d
26^2 = 24^2 + d^2
d^2 = 26^2 -24^2
d^2 = 676 - 576
d^2 = 100
d = square root of 100
d = 10ft
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
3 (1.5 - 0.5) = 3 (1) = 3 * 1 = 3. The value of the expression is 3.
