Distributive property is a (b+c) = ab + ac
The correct answer is X = -5
Answer:
see attached
Step-by-step explanation:
y-2=-2(x+4)
y -2 = x(-2) + 4(-2)
y -2 = -2x - 8
y = -2x - 8 + 2
y = -2x - 6
When x = 0, y = -6. Hence (0,-6) is a point on the line
when y = 0, x = -3. Hence (-3,0) is a point on the line.
Plot these 2 points and connect with a line (see attached)
One side is 5, another is 5, one side is 10, another side is 10. 5+5+10+10= 30
2+x=50
That is what I would do. I hope this helps!
