Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

-1(7 + -4x) = 9

(7 * -1 + -4x * -1) = 9

(-7 + 4x) = 9

Solving

-7 + 4x = 9

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '7' to each side of the equation.

-7 + 7 + 4x = 9 + 7

Combine like terms: -7 + 7 = 0

0 + 4x = 9 + 7

4x = 9 + 7

Combine like terms: 9 + 7 = 16

4x = 16

Divide each side by '4'.

x = 4

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

-(7 - 4x) = 9             (Given)

-7 + 4x = 9              (Distributed)

-7 + 4x + 7 = 9 + 7  (Add 7 on both sides)

4x = 16                    (Simplify)

4x/4 = 16/4             (Divide 4 on both sides)

x = 4                       (Simplify)

Yuri [45]

Answer:

12 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the floor:

area = length * width

area = 4 m * 5 m

area = 20 m²

area of carpet = 60% of area of the floor

area of carpet = 0.6 * 20 m²

area of carpet = 12 m²

On a coordinate plane, 2 quadrilaterals are shown. Quadrilateral Q R S T has points (negative 1, 0), (5, 0), (3.5, negative 6) a
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Based on the calculations, the scale factor for this dilation is equal to 1/3.

<h3>How to determine the scale factor for this dilation?</h3>

First of all, we would use the distance formula to find the length of side QR and Q'R' as follows:

Distance = √[(x₂ - x₁)² - (y₂ - y₁)²]

Substituting the given points into the formula, we have;

Distance QR = √[(5 - (-1))² + (0 - 0)²]

Distance QR = √[(5 + 1)² + (0)²]

Distance QR = √[6² + 0]

Distance QR = √36

Distance QR = 6 units.

For side Q'R', we have:

Distance Q'R' = √[(1 - (-1))² + (2 - 2)²]

Distance Q'R' = √[(1 + 1)² + (0)²]

Distance Q'R' = √[2² + 0]

Distance Q'R' = √4

Distance Q'R' = 2 units.

Now, the scale factor for this dilation is given by:

Scale factor = Q'R'/QR

Scale factor = 2/6

Scale factor = 1/3.

What is the slope of the line that contains the coordinate points (8, -3) and (-2, 7)
kotykmax [81]
To find the slope of a line given the coordinates of two points, you should use the formula, Slope=y2-y1/x2-x1.

To find the slope of a line which contains the coordinates (8,-3) and (-2,7), you should substitute them into the previous mention formula.

Slope=y2-y1/x2-x1
Slope=(7--3)/(-2-8)
Slope=(10)/(-10)
Slope=-1

The slope of the line which contains the coordinates (8,-3) and (-2,7) is -1 or in other words letter A from the given choices.
