Answer:

x= -2

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 2 = 6(-2x - 5)

Distribute

4x+2 = -12x-30

Add 12x to each side

4x+2+12x = -12x-30+12x

16x+2 = -30

Subtract 2 from each side

16x+2-2=-30-2

16x = -32

Divide by 16

16x/16x = -32/16

x = -2

Answer:

x = 50

m∠D = 150°

m∠F = 30°

Step-by-step explanation:

supplementary angles are two angles whose sum is 180°

∠D + ∠F = 180°

3x + x - 20 = 180

3x + x = 180 + 20

4x = 200

x = 200/4

x = 50

D = 3*50 = 150

∠D = 150°

F = 50 - 20 = 30

∠F = 30°

A farmer wants to use 200 feet of fencing for a chicken pen. He wants the width of the pen to be 20 feet. What is the length of

Aneli [31]

The length should be 80 feet.

This is because the width is 20, since there are two sides for the width in a pen, we have to add 20+20. This would equal 40. Then we need to subtract 40 from 200. 200-40 would be 160. Then since there are two sides for the length, we need to split that in half. 160÷2 would be 80. To double check, you can do 80+80 and that would still be 160. So the length of one side would be 80. But of course, this whole thing would only be right if the pen has four sides(but since i have seen many chicken pens, there were all rectangular). I hope this helped! :)

Q # 1 Graph the function Y = |X + 2| - 3

Svetllana [295]

First of all we know the Absolute Value Function that is:

$\left | x \right |= \left \{ {{x \ \ \ \ x \geq 0} \atop {-x \ \ \ \ x\ \textless \ 0}} \right.$

This is called the Parent Function of the Absolute Value Function.

From the equation:

$y=\left | x+2 \right |-3$

The term:

$\left | x+2 \right |$

means that the the Parent Function is shifted two units to the left.

On the other hand, the term:

$-3$

means that the function $\left | x+2 \right |$ is shifted three units downward. So the result is the graph shown below
