Answer:

x=27/2

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2-1/3x=-4

subtract 1/2 from both sides

1/2+-1/3x -1/2=-4 -1/2

Group like terms

-1/3 ⋅ x +1/2+(-1/2)=-4 -1/2

Combine the fractions

-1/3 ⋅ x+0=-4 -1/2

Convert the integer into a fraction

-1/3 ⋅ x=-8/2 -1/2

Combine.

-1/3 ⋅ x= -9/2

Isolate the x:

-1/3x ⋅ 3/-1= -9/2 ⋅ 3/-1

1x=-9/2 ⋅ 3/-1

x= -9 ⋅ -3/2

x=27/2 as your answer

Write down the quadratic equation whose roots are $x = -7$ and $x = 1,$ and the coefficient of $x^2$ is 1. Enter your answer in

pav-90 [236]

<h2>Steps:</h2>

So firstly, since we know that the coefficient of x² is 1, this means that this is our base equation:

y = x² + bx + c

Now, since we know that the roots are -7 and 1, set y = 0 and set x = -7 and 1 and simplify:

$0=(-7)^2+b(-7)+c\\0=49-7b+c\\-49=-7b+c\\\\0=1^2+b(1)+c\\0=1+b+c\\-1=b+c\\\\-49=-7b+c\\-1=b+c$

Now with this, we can set up a system of equations to solve for b and c. For this, I will be using the elimination method. For this, subtract the 2 equations:

$\begin{alignedat}{2}-49&=-7b+c\\-(-1&=b+c)\\-48&=-8b\end{alignedat}$

Now that the c variable has been eliminated we can solve for b. For this, divide both sides by -8 and your first part of your answer is b = 6.

Now that we know the value of b, plug it into either equation to solve for c:

$-49=-7(6)+c\\-49=-42+c\\-7=c\\\\-1=6+c\\-7=c$

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>Putting it together, your final answer is x² + 6x - 7 = 0.</u>

Sati [7]

Hello.

The minimum number of rigid transformations required to show that polygon ABCDE is congruent to polygon FGHIJ is 2 (translation and rotation).

A rotation translation must be used to make the two polygons coincide.

A sequence of transformations of polygon ABCDE such that ABCDE does not coincide with polygon FGHIJ is a translation 2 units down and a 90° counterclockwise rotation about point D
