Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - 2(x + 3) = 8

4x - 2x - 6 = 8

2x - 6 = 8

2x = 14

x = 7

First step is to distribute -2 to x and 3, which equals -2x and -6

Second step is to subtract 4x - 2x, which equals 2x

Third step is to add -6 to 8, which equals 14

last step is to divide, 2x / 14, which equals 7

I hope this is correct

Find the distance between the pair of points.

lana66690 [7]

$\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points}\\\\
\begin{array}{ccccccccc}
&&x_1&&y_1&&x_2&&y_2\\
% (a,b)
&&(~ 0 &,& -11~) 
% (c,d)
&&(~ -9 &,& -12~)
\end{array}
\\\\\\
d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2}
\\\\\\
d=\sqrt{[-9-0]^2+[-12-(-11)]^2}
\\\\\\
d=\sqrt{(-9-0)^2+(-12+11)^2}
\\\\\\
d=\sqrt{(-9)^2+(-1)^2}\implies d=\sqrt{82}$
