Given the equation 5(-2x -10) = 25(x + 1), solve for the value of x that will make the equation true.

Step-by-step explanation:

5(-2x -10) = 25(x + 1)

-10x - 50 = 25x + 25

by transposing

-10x - 25x = 25 + 50

-35x = 75

x = -75/35

x = 15/7

or 2.142857 in decimal

Hope this helps

plz mark as brainliest

if x decreases by 4 then y increases by 10

step-by-step explanation:

answer: (-8,4) are the coordinates of a

step-by-step explanation:

let the side of square abcd is x .

thus the area of square abcd is .

now, by the diagram area of triangle ead= 1/2 × ea × ad = 1/2 × ea × x

( because ad is the side of square)

and, according to the question,

the areas of square abcd and right ead are equal.

⇒

⇒ea=2x

thus, ea: ab=2: 1

therefore, point a divides line segment eb into the ratio 2: 1.

⇒ by sectional formula coordinates of a are,

=

=

=(-8, 4)

thus the coordinates of a are (-8,4)
