Answer:

x = - 6/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute 5 (x - 4) first --> 5x - 20

Combine like-terms: <u>5x</u> - 20 + <u>2x </u>= 14 --> 7x - 20 = 14

Subtract 20 on both sides: 7x = -6

Divide both sides by 7: x = -6/7

Describe the next figure in each pattern. Then draw the figure

madreJ [45]

The first figure has 3 angles, the second one has 4 angles, the third one has 5 angles so the next one will have 6 angles.

The violet figures inside stick with each side of the outer figures in the middle, so the last figure will look more less like in the attachment.
