Step-by-step explanation:

2(x-1)=5(x-2)

=2x-2=5x-10

=2x-5x= -10+2

= -3x= -8

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>♤ Given Question:-</h3>

To solve for x

<h3>♤ Given Equation:-</h3>

2(x−1)=5(x−2)

<h3>♤ Solution:-</h3>

2(x - 1) = 5(x - 2)

=> 2 × x - 2 × 1 = 5 × x - 5 × 2 [Distributive property]

=> 2x - 2 = 5x - 10 [Simplification]

=> 5x - 2x = 10 - 2 [Bringing like terms on one side]

=> 3x = 8 [Simplification]

$= > x = \frac{8}{3}(ans)$

[In simplest form of improper fraction]

The output with the y being -4

aivan3 [116]

For this case we have a function of the form $y = f (x)$ , where $f (x) = - 4x$ . We must find the values of "and" according to the following function: $y = -4x$

So:

$f (-6) = - 4 (-6) = 24\\f (-2) = - 4 (-2) = 8\\f (3) = - 4 (3) = - 12$

Thus, the values are:

24,8, -12

Answer:

24,8, -12

Combine like terms fir the following expression: -3x+14-11+11x

babymother [125]

Answer:

8x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

In the expression -3x + 14 - 11 + 11x, we have two pairs of like terms that can be combined together:

-3x, 11x

14, -11

If we rewrite this expression with the like terms together, it would look like this:

-3x+11x + 14-11

To make the addition of -3x and 11x easier, we could switch their places in the expression to make it look like this:

11x-3x + 14-11

(Note: Even though we are switching the terms' places, the -3x still keeps its negative sign when you move it around.

11x-3x is 8x and 14-11 is 3.

Therefore, the expression -3x + 14 - 11 + 11x can be simplified by combining like terms into 8x + 3.

Match the following reasons with the statements in the given proof. Prove that if two angles are complementary to the same angle

yulyashka [42]

1. --> d

2. --> b

3. --> a

4. --> c

1 is d because that is the only piece of information that sounds like a given.

2 is b because we know that from the given, m∠1 is complementary to m∠2 and in the first problem, m∠1 + m∠2 = 90, they are added together. The definition of complementary angles is "Two angles with measures that, when added together, equal 90 degrees". Same thing with m∠3 and m∠2.

3 is a because since both of the problems equal 90 degrees, you can just take away the 90 and put an equal sign in between the two problems because they equal the same thing.

4 is c because you are subtracting m∠2 from the problems and ending up with just m∠1 = m∠3.

Hope this helps! :)
