PLEASE HELP! Explain

x=17

Step-by-step explanation:

See those same little "triangles" on each right end of the horizontal lines? That means that the horizontal lines are parallel. And the vertical line that passes through both of them is called a transversal. Whenever we have that situation - where parallel lines are being intersected by a transversal - we can then know which angles are equal to each other using some postulates.

The angles with the given equations shown are corresponding angles. We know this because they are in the same matching corners created by the intersections. And by using the Corresponding Angles Postulate, which states that corresponding angles are congruent (or equal) we then know that 5x-25 and 3x+9 must be equal to each other, too.

From there, we can set up an equation to find x. Just set them equal to each other like so and solve:

Therefore, x = 17. Please don't hesitate to ask any questions!

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?

the terms of a geometric sequence can be found by beginning with the first term and multiplying by the common ratio repeatedly. a recursive formula for a geometric sequence with common ratio r is given by an=ran−1 a n = r a n − 1 for n≥2 n ≥ 2 .
