What is -(x + 4) - 3x = x in Distributive property?

Mathematics

andre [41]3 years ago

Answer:

x = -4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Original equation: -(x+4)-3x=x

Remember distributive property allows us to get rid of the parenthesis by bringing a multiplication from outside to inside a parenthesis.

-(x+4) = -x-4

= -x-4-3x=x

Now we combine like terms in this case we have (-x) and (-3x)

= -4x-4=x

Subtract x from both sides

= -4x-4=x

  -x      -x

----------------

 -5x-4=0

Add 4 to both sides

-5x-4=0

    +4 +4

---------------

-5x=4

Our final step is to divide both sides by -5

-5x=4

----  ----

-5    -5

x = -4/5

Hope this helps!!!

Answer:

b) - 10

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Average rate of change:</h3>

To find the average rate of change, we have divide the change in y of f(x) , by the change in x(input).

   \sf \boxed{\text{\bf Average rate of change = $\dfrac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}$}}

 a = 4 ; f(a) = -17

b = 6 ;   f(b) = -37

     \sf Average \ rate \ of \ change = \dfrac{-37-[-17]}{6-4}

                                         \sf =\dfrac{-37+17}{2}\\\\=\dfrac{-20}{2}\\\\=-10
