Answer is x = 12 :)

Operations you're supposed to do in order to solve this equation are:

1. Combine like terms

2. Subtract 12 from both sides

3. Simplify

4. Divide both sides of the equation by the same term

5. Simplify.

Kara and Lindsey both hike in separate directions from their campsite, with Kara hiking straight to the east and Lindsey hiking
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

A. f(x)=x^2+x+0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

If x represents Lindsey's distance at 2:00 PM, then 2x represents Kara's distance at 2:00 PM because she walked twice as far as Lindsey. Then adding on the values we got for 2:30 PM, we get that Kara walked a distance of 2x+1 and Lindsey walked a distance of x+0.5 at the time of 2:30 PM. Now, we know that they have formed a right triangle because we are given the directions they walked in; east and north. This allows us to use a formula for the area of a right triangle: 1/2(L x W). Plugging in our values, we get...

1/2(2x+1)(x+0.5)

which simplifies to...

1/2(2x^2+2x+0.5)

which further simplifies to...

x^2+x+0.25

which is our answer.

polet [3.4K]

The expression (21 + 5i) + (-1 + i) demonstrates the commutative property of addition for (-1 + i) + (21 + 5i)

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more number and variables.

Given the expression:

(-1 + i) + (21 + 5i)

Using the commutative property of addition, we get:

(21 + 5i) + (-1 + i)

The expression (21 + 5i) + (-1 + i) demonstrates the commutative property of addition for (-1 + i) + (21 + 5i)
