-2(x + 5) = 2 |use distributive property: a(b + c) = ab + ac
-2x - 10 = 2 |add 10 to both sides
-2x = 12 |divide both sides by (-2)
x = -6
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The measure of an inscribed angle is exactly half the measure of the arc it forms. Thus, we have the following equation:

Solving, we get:

Plugging in
into
:

24a ^ 2-6a-9.
you should do in this case is to see the terms that are repeated in the expression.
WE have then that the terms are a and the multiples of 3.
Making a common factor we have:
24a ^ 2-6a-9.
3 (8a ^ 2-2a-3).
3 (a (8a-2) -3)
Answer:
The equivalent expression is:3 (a (8a-2) -3)
