<span>8d – 4d – 6d – 8 = 2d
Combine common terms:
-2d - 8 = 2d
Add 2d to both sides:
-8 = 4d
Swtich sides:
4d = -8
Divide both sides by 4:
d = -2
Answer: - 2

Answer:
-3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
to figure that out you have to do y^2 - y^1/ x^2 - x^1
2-(-1)/ -3 - 2
= 3/-5
=-3/5
To solve this you would use the pythagorean theorem since the brace is making the frame look like two right triangles. The theorem states that for a triangle with a right angle, A^2+B^2=C^2. A and B are the sides of the frame and C is the brace which is like the hypotenuse of the triangle. It doesn't matter which side is A or B so you can put 6 or 8 in place of either in the equation. 6^2+8^2=C^2. If you simplify this it equals 36+64=C^2, which then simplifies to 100=C^2. Then you take the square root of both sides (what number multiplied by itself = the number you are trying to get, in this case, 100). So then you get C=10 because 10x10=100. So the length of the diagonal brace is 10ft.
