Simplifying
3x + 4 = 7 + -2x

Reorder the terms:
4 + 3x = 7 + -2x

Solving
4 + 3x = 7 + -2x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '2x' to each side of the equation.
4 + 3x + 2x = 7 + -2x + 2x

Combine like terms: 3x + 2x = 5x
4 + 5x = 7 + -2x + 2x

Combine like terms: -2x + 2x = 0
4 + 5x = 7 + 0
4 + 5x = 7

Add '-4' to each side of the equation.
4 + -4 + 5x = 7 + -4

Combine like terms: 4 + -4 = 0
0 + 5x = 7 + -4
5x = 7 + -4

Combine like terms: 7 + -4 = 3
5x = 3

Divide each side by '5'.
x = 0.6

Answer: x = 0.6

Find the perimeter of a quadrilateral with vertices at C (−2, 1), D (2, 4), E (5, 0), and F (1, −3).
antoniya [11.8K]

The perimeter of the quadrilateral with vertices at C (−2, 1), D (2, 4), E (5, 0), and F (1, −3) is 20units.

Option C) is the correct answer.

<h3>What a quadrilateral?</h3>

A quadrilateral is simply a polygon with four sides, four angles, and four vertices.

To get the perimeter, we simply add the values of the four side.

Given that;

The vertices are at C (−2, 1), D (2, 4), E (5, 0), and F (1, −3).

To get the dimension between the given coordinates, we use;

 d = √((x2 -x1)² +(y2 - y1)²)

For length CD, DE, EF and FC

CD = √((2 - (-2))² + (4 - 1)²) = √( 16+9) = √25 = 5

DE = √((5 - 2)² + (0 - 4)²) = √( 9+16) = √25 = 5

EF = √((1 - 5)² + (-3 - 0)²) = √( 16+9) = √25 = 5

FC = √((-2 - 1)² + ( 1 - (-3))²) = √( 9+16) = √25 = 5

Perimeter of the quadrilateral = CD + DE + EF + FC

Perimeter of the quadrilateral = 5 + 5 + 5 + 5

Perimeter of the quadrilateral = 20units

Therefore, the perimeter of the quadrilateral with vertices at C (−2, 1), D (2, 4), E (5, 0), and F (1, −3) is 20units.

Option C) is the correct answer.
