Answer:

x = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

2(4x+2) = 4x - 12(x-1)

Expand brackets.

8x + 4 = 4x - 12x + 12

Subtract 4 on both sides.

8x = 4x - 12x + 12 - 4

Subtract 4x and add 12x on both sides.

8x - 4x + 12x = 12 - 4

Combine like terms.

16x = 8

Divide both sides by 16.

x = 8/16 = 1/2

Answer:

x = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

2(4x+2) = 4x - 12(x-1)

Distribute

8x +4 = 4x - 12x +12

Combine like terms

8x + 4 = -8x +12

Add 8x to each side

8x+4+8x = -8x+12 +8x

16x+4 = 12

Subtract 4 from each side

16x +4-4 = 12-4

16x = 8

Divide by 16

16x/16 =8/16

x = 1/2

ANSWER

EXPLANATION

For a matrix A of order n×n, the cofactor $C_{ij}$ of element $a_{ij}$ is defined to be

$C_{ij} = (-1)^{i+j} M_{ij}$

$M_{ij}$ is the minor of element $a_{ij}$ equal to the determinant of the matrix we get by taking matrix A and deleting row i and column j.

Here, we have

$C_{11} = (-1)^{1+1} M_{11} = M_{11}$

M₁₁ is the determinant of the matrix that is matrix A with row 1 and column 1 removed. The bold entries are the row and the column we delete.

$\begin{aligned} A=\begin{bmatrix} \bf 1 & \bf -6 & \bf -4\\ \bf 7 & 0 & -3 \\ \bf -9 & 8 & -8 \end{bmatrix} \implies M_{11} &= \text{det}\left(\begin{bmatrix} 0&-3 \\ 8&-8 \end{bmatrix} \right) \end{aligned}$

Since the determinant of a 2×2 matrix is

$\det\left( \begin{bmatrix} a & b \\ c& d \end{bmatrix} \right) = ad-bc$

it follows that

so $C_{11} = M_{11} = 24$

shutvik [7]

Answer:

x=29°

Step-by-step explanation:

as lines are parallel.

external alternate angles are equal.

7x-86=4x+1

7x-4x=1+86

3x=87

x=87/3=29
