Answer:
x=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Remove the parenthesis
-x + 1 = -4x - 2
2. Get x alone
-x + 1 = -4x - 2
+1x +1x
1=-3x - 2
+2 +2
3=-3x -3x/-3= x 3/-3 = -1
x=-1
She should have added 2 to both sides of the equation instead of subtracting 2.
2x -2 = 14
Add 2 to both sides:
2x = 16
Divide both sides by 2:
x = 8
First, we have to find the length of each side of triangle. Equilateral triangle means 3 sides r in same length, so each side will be 21 ÷ 3 = 7
Now we need to calculate the height of the triangle. We can do this by Pythagoras theorem
Let the height be h
(7/2)^2 + x^2 = 7^2
The area should be 6.0621778265
Or u can say 6.06 corrected to 3 sig fig
Slope-intercept form:
y = mx + b
"m" is the slope, "b" is the y-intercept (the y value when x = 0 or (0,y))
For lines to be parallel, their slopes have to be the SAME.
The given line's slope is 5/3, so the parallel line's slope is also 5/3
y = 5/3x + b
To find "b", plug in the point (3,6) into the equation
y = 5/3x + b
6 = 5/3(3) + b
6 = 5 + b
1 = b
y = 5/3x + 1
