(x−2) 2 +(x+8) 2 =10

Please Explain ASAP

x= -0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-4+2x+16=10

4x+12=10

4x=-2

x=-1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

(x-2) 2 +(x+8) 2 = 10

x-2 + 2× x 2×8 + 2 = 10

x - 2 + 2x + 16 + 2 = 10

x + 2x + 16 - 2 + 2 = 10

3x + 16 = 10

3x = 10-16

3x = -6

3x÷3x = 6 ÷ 3

x = 2

given that triangle abc is transformed two times to get triangle

a"b"c"

first abc is transformed in to a'b'c' as follows:

the coordinates of a are (1,-1) and transformed into a'(-1,1)

similarly b (4,-2) became b'(-4,2) and

c(7,-2) became c'(-7,2)

i.e. (x,y) becomes (-x,-y)

this is nothing but reflection about a point here origin.

thus first transformation is reflection on the origin.

next is exactly shifting 3 units down
