Answer:
Step-by-step explanation
subtract 8 from both sides
8-2x-8=-4x+4-8
simplify
-2x=-4x-4
add 4x to both sides
-2x+4x=-4x-4+4x
Simplify
2x=-4
divide both sides by 2
2x/2=4/2
x=-2
9514 1404 393
(b) 38.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The polygon is a trapezoid with bases 4 and 7 and height 7. Its area is given by the formula ...
A = (1/2)(b1 +b2)h
A = (1/2)(4 +7)(7) = 77/2
A = 38.5 . . . . square units
C
