If 4x = 28, find the value of 29 - 5x

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

28/4=7

7*5=35

29-35=-6

The value of 29 - 5x is -6

Step-by-step explanation:

4x = 28     (do the inverse operation of multiplication which is division)

4       4

Which equals x = 7

Since x = 7 then we put that value to the equation of 29 - 5x

29 - 5 * 7

= 29 - 35

= -6

Hope this helps!

-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
