Solve for x.
2(x+6)=18

show how you got the answer

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

2 times (x)= 2x + 6 = 18 (equation) Then you multiply the 2 • 6 = (12) then subtract the 18-12 and you get 6 then you go back to the 2x and think what would (x) have to be for me to get the answer (6) then you think 2x3 = 6 then you get your answer of (3)

I hope this works for you bc this was the way I was taught.

-3

step-by-step explanation:

a drawing really does here:

so i draw the horizontal line y=2 and the vertical line x=-2 at this intersection i put b (this is where my right angle is going to be).   so point b is at (-2,2).   point a is 5 units long and is also on y=2 so this point has to be (3,2) or (-7,2) -doesn't matter i will go with (3,2).

now we know c is at (-2,y) we don't know the y yet bet we know that c is on x=-2.

we have the area of the triangle is .5bh=12.5

we know the base length is 5 (ab)

we have the height is (2-y) if you look at your

plug in

.5(5)(2-y)=12.5

solve for y to get the y-coordinate for c

2.5(2-y)=12.5

divide both sides by 2.5 giving:

2-y=5

now subtract 2 on both sides

-y=3

y=-3
